NORTHAMPTON — Cooley Dickinson Health Care has reopened Urgent Care at its hospital location. The Urgent Care practice, which closed in the spring of 2020 in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, provides an alternative to Emergency Department visits for illnesses and injuries that are not life-threatening, and in many cases can reduce the cost and wait time for treatment of those conditions.
Urgent Care reopens in a new space in the west wing of the 30 Locust St. building, which was set up to serve acute COVID-19 patients and whose mandate has been winding down as COVID case numbers drop in the region and vaccination rates increase.
