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:
- Cold/flu/sore throat
- Sprains and strains
- Headache
- Nausua
- Back pain
- Minor cuts, breaks, burns
- Eye or ear infection
Patients are seen on a first come, first serve basis (no appointments).
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.
