What is tele-urgent care?

Tele-urgent care is telemedicine optimized for urgent care needs. With telemedicine, you see your medical care provider virtually through video conferencing on your smartphone, tablet, or computer.

At AVC Med, the experienced medical care providers understand their patients are seeking both expert care and convenience. These things become particularly important when you’re sick or injured and want to feel better as fast as possible. 

With tele-urgent care, you get the medical care you need while remaining in your home, where you’re the most comfortable. 

What conditions does tele-urgent care cover?

Tele-urgent care can help with several illnesses and injuries, with some common examples including: 

  • Cuts and scrapes
  • Rashes
  • Insect stings and bites
  • Colds
  • Flu
  • Sore throat
  • Earaches
  • Infections
  • Pink or red eyes
  • Urinary tract infections (UTIs)
  • Sprains
  • Headaches
  • Joint stiffness
  • Constipation or diarrhea
  • Nausea and vomiting

In some cases, chronic conditions can also require urgent care. For example, if you have diabetes, a sudden change in your health, such as a sudden high blood glucose reading, can be urgent. 

What can I expect from tele-urgent care?

You’ll use your computer, smartphone, or tablet to access a video conferencing app for a telemedicine appointment. Typically, the practice sends you a direct link to click at the appointed time. Or, your provider may simply call you using a video call. 

 

Before your appointment, find a quiet, well-lit spot where you can speak with your medical care provider without interruptions. You’ll see your provider, much like you would in the office and converse in real-time. 

 

After reviewing your medical records and discussing the reason for your visit, your AVC Med provider can explain your condition or issue and recommend a treatment. They may prescribe medication, such as antibiotics or antihistamines, or might recommend rest, fluids, and other simple remedies. 

 

Your provider may also recommend a follow-up appointment in a few days to check on your recovery. However, if you experience any issues during recovery, don’t hesitate to contact the office for help. 

AVC Med is here to make tele-urgent care more convenient than ever before. Call the office to schedule an appointment or join our community today.
