Urgent vs. Life-Threatening Injuries

It's crucial to understand the difference between urgent and life-threatening injuries to ensure you receive the appropriate level of care. While our urgent care centers are equipped to handle a wide range of injuries, certain severe conditions require immediate emergency room attention. 

We are committed to providing medical care for all patients. However, it is vital to recognize situations that demand immediate attention from emergency services. In such cases, calling 911 as soon as possible is imperative.

Urgent injuries that we can treat include:

  • Cuts requiring stitches
  • Sprains and strains
  • Minor fractures and broken bones
  • Sports-related injuries
  • Work-related injuries
  • Minor burns
  • Animal and insect bites

Life-threatening emergencies include critical situations, such as seizures, consuming poisonous substances, snake bites, or chest pain. Symptoms of a potentially life-threatening scenario can include:

  • Persistent and profuse bleeding
  • Intense chest pain radiating to the arm, jaw, or back
  • Difficulty breathing due to choking or other issues
  • Loss of consciousness
  • Deep wounds or amputations
  • Major burns
  • Severe head injuries or loss of consciousness
  • Severe abdominal pain
  • Poisoning or overdose

If you're unsure whether your injury requires emergency care, it's always best to err on the side of caution and seek immediate medical attention at the nearest emergency room or call 911.

Types of Injuries We Treat

At Destiny Urgent Cares of Colorado, we're equipped to handle a variety of non-life-threatening injuries. Our experienced medical team can provide prompt, effective treatment for the following types of injuries:

Minor Cuts and Abrasions

Cuts and scrapes are common injuries that can occur during everyday activities. While many minor cuts can be treated at home, some require professional medical attention. We can clean and dress wounds, provide stitches or sutures when necessary, and offer guidance on proper wound care to prevent infection and promote healing.

Our medical team will assess the depth and location of the cut, clean the wound thoroughly, and determine the best method of closure. We also provide tetanus shots if needed and can prescribe antibiotics to prevent infection in high-risk wounds.

Sprains and Strains

Sprains and strains are common injuries that affect the muscles, tendons, and ligaments. These injuries can occur during sports activities, accidents, or even routine daily tasks. At Destiny Urgent Cares of Colorado, we can diagnose and treat sprains and strains, providing immediate relief and developing a treatment plan for recovery.

Our treatment approach may include the RICE method (Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation), pain management, and recommendations for physical therapy or rehabilitation exercises. We can also provide braces or splints when necessary to support the injured area during the healing process.

Fractures and Broken Bones

In cases of fractures or broken bones, timely and accurate treatment is crucial. Our healthcare professionals have the expertise to diagnose fractures through on-site X-rays. While severe fractures may require emergency room care, we can diagnose and provide initial treatment for many types of broken bones. Our facilities are equipped with digital X-ray technology, allowing us to quickly and accurately diagnose fractures.

For minor fractures, we can provide splinting or casting to immobilize the affected area and promote proper healing. For more complex fractures, we can stabilize the injury and refer you to an orthopedic specialist for further treatment. Our team will also provide pain management and follow-up care instructions to ensure optimal recovery.

Sports-Related Injuries

Active individuals and athletes may experience specific injuries related to sports activities. Destiny Urgent Cares of Colorado specializes in sports-related injuries, offering tailored care to address the needs of the active and sporty members of our community.

We offer comprehensive evaluations to determine the extent of the injury and develop appropriate treatment plans. Our goal is not only to treat the immediate injury but also to provide guidance on injury prevention and safe return-to-play protocols.

Occupational injuries require specialized attention. Destiny Urgent Cares is experienced in treating various work-related injuries, whether in an office, on a construction site, or in any other workplace setting. Our goal is to facilitate a swift recovery and support your return to work.
