Urgent Care Clinics do not replace the need for you to have a regular GP, who should always be the first point of contact for your urgent healthcare needs. Urgent Care Clinics cannot provide healthcare services such as vaccinations, preventative health screening, mental health care plans or chronic disease management.
If you or a loved one has a life-threatening injury or illness, do not attend a Medicare Urgent Care Clinic. Do not attend an Urgent Care Clinic for chest pain or tightness, breathing difficulties, uncontrollable bleeding, severe burns, poisoning, numbness or paralysis, ongoing fever in infants, or if the patient is unconscious, unresponsive or having seizures. Call triple zero (000) or go to your nearest emergency department.
