Urgent Care Centre

Euroa Health operates an Urgent Care Centre which is located on Kennedy Street Euroa

The Urgent Care Centre is available to the entire community from 6pm to 6am every night and all day Sunday when Euroa Medical Family Practice in Binney Street Euroa is closed, so that the on-call General Practitioners are available for us.

Our Urgent Care Centre is set up to assist patients with injuries or illnesses that do not appear to be serious or life threatening but cannot wait until your GP Practice reopens.

Our Urgent Care Centre will assist you in any medical situation which can include stabilising you or your family members medical condition and assisting with arranging Emergency Transfer to a larger Emergency Department via Ambulance.

Please see our information brochure – Urgent Care Brochure March 23

Euroa Health’s Urgent Care Centre does not have access to the Imaging Services at Euroa Health during the Urgent Care Centre opening hours.   

 Should you have a suspected fracture please present to another larger local Emergency Department.

COST

$60 payable to Euroa Health on the day (eftpos available) and 50% off for Euroa Health Inc. members $30 AND $50 billed separately at the discretion of the Euroa Medical on-call Doctor.

A recent user shares her experience:

Christina and her daughter Ella (aged 6) recently attended the Urgent Care Centre for stitches after Ella took a tumble at home. It was their first visit to Euroa Health Inc Urgent Care Centre and now knowing that a Euroa Health Inc Membership will allow them free access to the Urgent Care Centre means that this year Christina will not be without a Membership.

“The help was second to none and we did not need to go to Shepparton which is just fabulous.”
