Urgent Care & Walk-In Care

Urgent care is right for when your health care need is pressing, but not life threatening, and when you can’t get in to see your regular doctor.

Urgent care is good for:

• Sprains or strains
• Earache
• Minor infections
• Small cuts or abrasions, minor burns
• Sore throats
• Rashes without fever
• Mild asthma
• Urinary tract infections
• Minor broken bones, with skin NOT broken

Samaritan offers quick, convenient, “same-day” appointments for a variety of health issues such as:

• Bladder and urinary tract infection
• Pink eye
• Earache and ear infection
• Flu vaccination
• Skin irritation or rash without fever
• Sports physicals
• Dental pain
• Many other minor illnesses and injuries

Due to COVID-19, SamCare Express locations are currently unable to see patients with common coronavirus symptoms. If you have any cold or flu-like symptoms, call your health care provider or do a “Coronavirus Concerns” MyChart E-Visit at samhealth.org/MyChart.

Schedule online at samhealth.org/SameDay. Walk-ins will be scheduled for the next available appointment.

Samaritan offers three telehealth options: MyChart E-Visits, video or, in some cases, telephone visits. A broad range of services is being offered via telehealth. Your health care team will help decide whether a telehealth visit is right for you.

MyChart E-Visits

For E-Visit services, you will need to have a MyChart account and reside within the state of Oregon. E-Visits are fast, secure and convenient if you are experiencing a common medical condition. If you do not have a MyChart account, this can be setup at samhealth.org/MyChart.

• Cough/bronchitis

Video Visits

You will need a smartphone or tablet with internet connectivity to download the Microsoft Teams® app onto your device. Instructions will be included in the appointment invite sent by your Samaritan clinic.

Telephone Visits

In some cases, Samaritan may be able to conduct visits by telephone, if MyChart E-visits or video visits are not feasible.
