The same great care you’ve come to expect will remain but other changes will make it easier to get care. Effective February 2, Keystone Walk-In Care will become Keystone Urgent Care. The name change comes along with many patient focused improvements including extended hours from 8:00 am to 8:00 pm to better serve patients, and more providers on staff to offer shorter wait times. The practice will remain in its current location in the Cochran Professional Center, 830 Fifth Avenue in Chambersburg.
Dr. Caleb Nwosu, medical director of Keystone Urgent Care, said patients will notice improvements to the practice as wait times have shortened and patients can have more flexibility of when to seek care. “Now that we’re open from 8:00 am to 8:00 pm, patients have the chance to get care for general issues before or after work or school, when it’s most convenient for them,” he said.
Kristy Bush, director of Keystone Urgent Care, said the name change better reflects the care they provide patients. “We provide immediate care for patients when they are sick or injured,” she said. “It is also a nice option for parents so they can receive the reassurance they need for their sick child prior to putting them to bed or helping them decide if the child is well enough to attend school.”
Keystone Urgent Care offers high quality, cost effective care for those who need prompt medical attention for non-threatening conditions such as minor injuries and illnesses. The practice treats adults and children with common ailments like cough, cold & flu, cuts, sore throat, and urinary symptoms, just to name a few. The center also offers x-rays, physicals, flu shots, and STD testing. Patients with a true emergency such as chest pain, severe shortness of breath, seizures, sudden severe headache, head trauma with loss of consciousness, physical or sexual assault, etc. should seek care directly from the emergency department or call 911.
Keystone Urgent Care providers are experienced and skilled in the practice of urgent care medicine. The center is co-located with many other Keystone Health practices as well as Keystone Pharmacy. For more information about Keystone Urgent Care click here or call (717) 709-7979.
