Last August CGH launched TeleUrgent Care. The service allows new and established CGH clients to connect with healthcare providers no matter where they are. It is a great resource to remember when summer trips take you out of the area.
CGH TeleUrgent Care makes it easier for you to connect with the CGH healthcare providers you know and trust. Featuring expanded hours from 7AM to 7:30PM, 7 days a week, CGH TeleUrgent Care is available for both new and established patients from your smartphone (any Android or iPhone) anywhere with a stable internet connection.
You’ll be cared for by the same highly qualified Nurse Practitioners and Physician Assistants as you would see if you visited one of our clinics in person. That means whether online or in person, you’ll receive the same excellent care!
CGH TeleUrgent Care can treat you for a variety of common health conditions like:
• Bladder Infections
• Cold & Flu Symptoms
• Insect Bites
• Minor Burns & Rashes
• Pink Eye
• Poison Ivy
• Ringworm
• Sinus Infections
• Sore Throats
• Sprains & Strains
• Upper Respiratory Infections
If TeleUrgent Care is not appropriate for your condition, our providers will help guide you to other levels of care. Additionally, if you need a prescription for your treatment after your visit, we will send it to the pharmacy of your choice.
To schedule a TeleUrgent Care appointment, visit www.cghmc.com/TeleUrgent or call (815) 564-4200. Within 30 minutes, you will receive a text with confirmation of your visit and a link to be automatically connected to the local provider.
