FAQ

When should I go to an emergency room instead of urgent care?

Use an emergency department for possible heart attack or stroke, severe injuries, uncontrolled bleeding, or other life-threatening symptoms. Urgent care is generally suited to minor fractures, lacerations, burns, sprains, infections, and similar problems.

How much does an emergency-room visit cost in New Hanover County?

The amount varies by insurance, emergency-department facility fees, physician charges, tests, and treatment. Ask your insurer about emergency-care benefits and request an itemized bill after the visit.

How long is the typical emergency-room wait?

Wait times vary with patient volume and severity; patients with life-threatening conditions are treated first. A non-emergency visit may take several hours, especially if imaging, lab work, or specialist consultation is needed.

What should I do during a medical emergency before reaching the ER?

Call 911 for severe breathing trouble, chest pain, stroke signs, uncontrolled bleeding, or major trauma rather than driving yourself. Follow the dispatcher’s instructions and bring a medication list if it is safe to do so.

Is urgent care open overnight in New Hanover County?

The listed Carolina Care location is open seven days a week, with weekday hours from 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m.; it does not provide overnight or 24-hour coverage. Emergency departments provide care 24/7.
