What Types of Situations Are Not Appropriate for a House Call Appointment?

True emergencies are not appropriate for a house call-type of appointment. If you suspect a heart attack, stroke or have had major trauma, call 911 and seek care at an emergency room. The reason is that an emergency room has specialized equipment that helps healthcare professionals accurately diagnose and treat life-threatening conditions such as chest pain. When it comes to major trauma, more is involved than just stopping the bleeding and suturing wounds. An X-ray might be needed to determine if any bone damage is involved. Overnight hospitalization may be needed for monitoring. An emergency is best handled at an emergency room.
