Family Care Network has two urgent care options. The Bellingham location is for established FCN patients only. The Mount Vernon location is open to all patients, even if they have not been seen at FCN previously.
Urgent care is for non-emergency medical issues that need immediate attention, such as:
- Colds, cough, sore throat, fever and flu symptoms
- Work-related injuries
- Ear or sinus pain
- Scrapes or lacerations
- Urinary discomfort or symptoms
- Minor burns
- Headaches
- Pediatric illness and asthma
- Sprains, strains, minor bruises and possible fractures
Patients are seen on a first come, first serve basis (no appointments). Lab and x-ray is available on site.
Non-urgent appointments, such as sports physicals, CDL certification, and vaccinations, must be scheduled with your regular doctor.
Life-threatening emergencies should be seen at the hospital, or dial 911. This includes difficulty breathing, heart attack/stroke, extremely high fever, severe trauma or broken bones, uncontrolled bleeding, poisoning, major burns and other serious medical issues.
