What Is Same-Day Care?
Same-day care is intended for health concerns that need medical attention within a reasonable timeframe but are not life-threatening emergencies. It can be a suitable option when you are concerned about a new or worsening symptom and waiting for a regular family doctor appointment may not be practical.
The appropriate level of care depends on your symptoms and overall health. A healthcare professional can assess your concern and advise you about the next steps, including treatment, follow-up or referral when needed.

When Should You Consider Same-Day Care?
People often seek same-day medical attention when a health problem develops unexpectedly or becomes difficult to manage. Some concerns may be appropriate for same-day care, while others require emergency treatment.
Examples of concerns that may require same-day medical assessment include:
- Minor injuries (that require medical assessment) or illnesses that can’t reasonably wait for a scheduled appointment
- Dehydration
- Cuts that won't stop bleeding
- Flu symptoms, persistent fevers, infections, or rashes
- Injured limb that might be sprained or broken
- Symptoms that have become worse despite home care
- Other non-emergency conditions
If you are unsure whether your concern requires same-day care, a walk-in clinic or emergency department, contact the clinic for guidance.

Same-Day Care vs. Emergency Care
Same-day care at a walk-in clinic is intended for non-emergency health concerns. It is different from care provided by a hospital emergency department.
Emergency departments and urgent care centres are equipped to manage more serious or urgent conditions that require a higher level of medical care. Shared Health advises patients to use same-day care for urgent, but not life-threatening, conditions, while walk-in clinics can provide care for many less urgent health concerns.
For a medical emergency or a life-threatening condition, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency department.
For non-emergency concerns that still need timely medical attention, a same-day care or walk-in clinic may be more appropriate. Understanding the difference can help patients choose the right level of care while avoiding unnecessary delays.
