Urgent Care
Count on us for high quality, compassionate care that gets you on the road to recovery.
Registration
Count on us for a quick and easy registration process. After greeting you, our representative will request your essential information. You will need to provide your address, phone number, an emergency contact person, place of employment, regular physician if you have one and health insurance information. If you have been a Baptist Health South Florida patient before, we will request that you confirm the accuracy of the medical records we have on file for you. You must also sign a consent form in order to receive medical treatment for yourself or your child.
Evaluating Your Condition
After registration, our triage nurse will review your vital signs, symptoms, medical condition and medical background. This process helps us prioritize care—wait times are based on the severity of each patient’s condition. Our primary goal is to deliver efficient, effective and compassionate care that gets you back on your feet as quickly as possible. If, during your wait, your condition gets worse, please inform us right away.
Your Treatment
The next step is meeting our attending physician who will perform an examination in one of our treatment rooms. Depending on your medical needs, the physician may request laboratory and/or diagnostic imaging tests. You may rest in the treatment room while waiting for your test results. You may have one visitor at a time with you while you wait. For their comfort and yours, we request that additional relatives or friends remain in the waiting area. Both parents are welcome to stay in the treatment room if their child is a patient.
Ensuring Good Outcomes
Before leaving the urgent care center, we will provide you with discharge instructions. Please follow these directions carefully. Feel free to ask us about anything you don’t understand. Our staff is always willing to discuss your questions or concerns. If you need a follow-up appointment, please schedule this before you leave. In some cases, our Quality Assurance nurse may follow-up with you by phone, so please provide us with a phone number where we can reach you. If you have questions concerning your care or discharge instructions, please call our Quality Assurance Department at 954-837-1009. The department is open every day, from 7 a.m. - 3 p.m.
