An urgent care center is a walk in clinic focused on the delivery of medical care for minor illnesses and injuries in an ambulatory medical facility outside of a traditional hospital-based or freestanding emergency department.
Assisted living centres are one of the most popular elderly care options for seniors who can live largely on their own and have minimal medical needs. They may need some support for doing their daily chores and following Medication routines or availing moderate levels of nursing care.
Medical Malls are former retail spaces repurposed for health care tenants or mixed use medical/ retail facilities.
