About The Position

Express Care, formally known as Urgent Care, is a convenient option for patients who require timely medical care, but the situation is not an emergency.

You may also be asked to report to any of these centers during orientation (for training/precepting purposes) or during times of staffing shortages or other extenuating circumstances (for cross-coverage purposes).
