Englewood Health Urgent Care Opens in Jersey City, Part of Urgent Care Sites Across Northern New Jersey
Extended Weekday and Weekend Hours Available
ENGLEWOOD, N.J., Feb. 14, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Englewood Health has opened an urgent care facility in Jersey City, located at 2 Journal Square in the Englewood Health ZT Systems Outpatient Center. The new urgent care site provides adult and pediatric urgent and non-urgent medical care seven days a week, with extended weekday and weekend hours available. Englewood Health Urgent Care at Jersey City is one of four Englewood Health urgent care locations across northern New Jersey where patients with minor injuries and illnesses can conveniently access diagnostic services and treatment with no appointment needed, as well as referrals to other Englewood Health specialists.
"The addition of urgent care makes Englewood Health's ability to care for you truly comprehensive," says Warren Geller, president and CEO of Englewood Health. "In Jersey City, we're right in your neighborhood to help with unexpected urgent, non-life-threatening injuries or illnesses." He adds, "With locations across northern New Jersey, our urgent care centers round out Englewood Health's capacity to care for our communities. We offer physician office visits, emergency medicine, urgent care, hospital care, rehabilitation, extended care facilities, and home visits to ensure safe, quality care for every member of the family."
At Englewood Health Urgent Care at Jersey City, healthcare providers are available to assist with illnesses and injuries; pre-employment, school, and camp physicals; lab tests; X-rays; vaccinations; and other urgent and routine care. The center, located at 2 Journal Square, First Floor, Suite A, in Jersey City, is open Monday through Friday from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. and Saturdays and Sundays from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Englewood Health accepts most insurance plans. For more information, call 201-222-1234.
"At Englewood Health, we are ensuring access to quality urgent care for our patients," says Stephen Brunnquell, MD, president of the Englewood Health Physician Network. "An urgent care visit with Englewood Health also opens the door to our many specialists. Our physicians share a common electronic medical record system, which means that your urgent care visit report can be viewed by your EHPN primary care provider or a specialist if follow-up care is needed."
Dr. Brunnquell adds, "Urgent care does not replace your regular physician appointments for routine primary care or chronic condition management, rather it is a part of comprehensive care when needed. If you or a loved one is having a true medical emergency, such as chest pain, shortness of breath, or signs of a stroke, call 911."
In addition to Englewood Health Urgent Care at Jersey City, other Englewood Health Urgent Care locations include Cresskill, Englewood, and a new site in Fair Lawn opening in February. Walk-in appointments will also be available at Englewood Health Physician Network Primary Care of Cliffside Park in 2022.
