Typical urgent care centers can be found either attached to a hospital or as a freestanding facility. These centers often provide basic healthcare services but also time-sensitive and non-life threatening emergencies. The term âurgentâ may lead someone to believe that a facility may be equipped to handle a potentially life-threatening emergency, but this is not often the case with urgent care centers.
