The Primary Health Care Corporation (PHCC) has added Urgent Care Services to Al Mashaf Health Center, bringing the total number of health centres providing this service to nine.

The health centres that provide Urgent Care Services 24 hours a day, seven days a week are Al Ruwais, Umm Slal, Muaither, Al Gharrafa, Al Sheehaniya, Abu Baker, Rawdat Al Khail, Al Kaaban and Al Mashaf, the ninth state-of-the-art health centre that has recently opened.

PHCC stated that its clinical teams at 30 health centres are ready to provide medical care to children aged five years and above who have urgent but non-emergency medical conditions. This include a respiratory tract infection, mild fever, throat pain or ear pain. Parents can take their children, without a prior appointment, to their registered health centre between 7am and 11pm, or to any of PHCC’s nine Urgent Care Units, open 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

PHCC’s Urgent Care Units provide round the clock care for patients with non-threatening medical needs under primary care, such as minor burns, sprains, severe headache or earache, high fever, dehydration and dizziness. Parents can take their children to any PHCC Urgent Care Unit, regardless of which health centre they are registered at.

PHCC is keen to achieve the National Primary Health Care Strategy, which is committed to enabling the patient to obtain high-quality and fast primary healthcare services, thus achieving high level of patient and visitor satisfaction.
