Saint Francis adds urgent care clinics
Saint Francis Healthcare is adding urgent care facilities to its system.
Several former MedPost locations are now Urgent Care of Saint Francis centers. One is located in Olive Branch; the others are in Bartlett, Collierville, Cordova, East Memphis and Germantown, according to a release from Saint Francis Healthcare.
“We are pleased to bring an urgent care strategy into the Saint Francis Physician Network,” said Pat Lloyd, senior director of Saint Francis Physician Network.
Lloyd added the health care system wants to offer “a comprehensive, clinically integrated network with extended service hours and weekend availability” to the communities it serves.
The urgent care facilities are for patients with injuries such as cuts, burns, sprains and broken bones. The clinics also handle seasonal illnesses, respiratory infections and skin conditions as well as physicals, drug screenings and on-site lab testing.
