If you have an urgent medical need outside of Student Health Center hours, go to either the emergency room or one of the following urgent care clinics. Whether you choose to visit the emergency room or an urgent care clinic depends on what type and the severity of your ailment. The purpose of the Emergency Room is to assess and treat people who are in danger of losing their lives (or limbs!). If you go to the emergency room when you do not have a true emergency you will likely spend longer waiting and more money. Urgent Care Centers are walk-in clinics (no appointment necessary) for immediate health concerns that do not require a trip to the emergency room.
If you are experiencing a medical emergency: Call 9-1-1
If you are a student on campus requiring immediate assistance: Call Campus Public Safety (802) 865-6465
Determining which clinic to visit is not cut and dry, but a personal decision. The chart below is intended to provide you with guidelines and is in no way diagnostic.
Remember to bring identification and your insurance card.
