Where To Go For Care

Whether you need care now, want to schedule an appointment with your doctor, or talk to a health care professional, UnityPoint Health is here to help team members find the care you need, safely. As you consider where to go, we want you to know all the ways you can get the care you need before spending more than you want to – or should. Keep reading below and visit our website for more information on Where to Go for Care.

When to Go to Your Primary Care Provider
You can’t guess when you or someone in your family will get sick, but when things come up during the week, your primary care provider is the best place to start. Whether you need to be seen for an illness that doesn’t need immediate attention or you need to set up your annual physical, your primary care provider can address all aspects of your care.

When to Go to a Walk-In Clinic
Walk-in clinics are a good option when the unexpected happens and a health need comes up on the evenings, weekends, or holidays. Walk-in clinics should be used for injuries and illnesses that aren’t life threatening, but still require fast attention.

When to Use Virtual Care
UnityPoint Health Virtual Care allows you to access care where it’s most convenient for you – home, office, or on the go. You can have a virtual consult to diagnose and treat a variety of medical issues through secure video on your computer or phone.

When to Go to the Emergency Room
For serious or life-threatening health issues, you need to immediately call 911 or go to the emergency room.  The emergency department is an expensive place to receive care and should be utilized only for life-threatening injuries and illnesses.
