Some of the conditions that can be treated at the urgent care include minor illnesses such as sinus infections, earaches, allergies, and pink eye, as well as injuries such as fractured bones.
The urgent care providers can also conduct school and sports physicals, and administer vaccinations. Diagnostic testing for the flu, pregnancy and strep can be done on-site, as well as X-rays.
The location a block west of Far Hills Avenue will be open from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. every day of the week.
The Dayton Daily News has previously reported on the rapid rise of urgent care centers in the region. About 1.5 miles away from Premier’s new site, competitor Kettering Health opened an On-Demand Care center last year in the Town & Country shopping center.
The new Kettering location will make nine total urgent cares operated by Premier. The system had opened a total of 11 since the concept’s rollout, but only nine are open and currently being used for urgent care purposes right now.
Two locations — Miamisburg and Vandalia — were repurposed for COVID-related needs over the past two years and are not being used currently for urgent care.
The current locations are in Beavercreek, Centerville, Englewood, Huber Heights, Lebanon, Piqua, Springboro, and Troy. Premier Health also previously announced a new health center at the former Good Samaritan Hospital site, which will include urgent care.
