University of Maryland Urgent Care Opens in University of Maryland School of Nursing
October 3, 2016
University of Maryland Urgent Care (UM Urgent Care) has now opened at 105 Penn Street in an effort to meet patient needs and improve access to world-class medical care in Baltimore. Located just around the corner from the University of Maryland Medical Center (UMMC) Emergency Department in the UM School of Nursing, the facility will provide care to patients who have timely medical needs but do not require emergency care – therefore expediting treatment and easing Emergency Department wait times.
The UMMC Emergency Department averages nearly 170 patients each day; it is estimated that about 50 of those patients could benefit from the services of UM Urgent Care.
