Emergency Department vs. Pediatric Walk-In Clinic?
Children should be taken to the Emergency Department instead of the Pediatric Walk-In Clinic for:
- Bleeding that won't stop
- Broken bone (bone sticking out of the skin)
- Seizure
- Severe allergic reaction/anaphylaxis
- Severe head injury (fainting or loss of consciousness)
- Shock
- Skin turning blue (lips, skin, fingers)
- Suspected poisoning
- Traumatic injuries
If you’re ever unsure about the severity of your child’s condition, it’s always best to err on the side of caution and seek emergency medical attention.
