When should you use an urgent care and not an emergency department?
When you have a cut that might need stitches. When you need a test and treatment for a possible urinary tract infection (UTI). When you have a bump, bruise or scrape that needs to be checked out.
And at Tanner, we have you covered with three regional urgent care locations.

When should you go to the hospital instead?
Our urgent care locations are great at treating a lot of minor emergencies, but severe emergencies need more significant treatments.
A severe emergency includes experiencing the symptoms of a heart attack, sudden cardiac arrest, stroke, trauma with severe bleeding, a mental health crisis and more. At Tanner, our emergency departments in Carrollton, Villa Rica and Bremen are accredited in stroke care, and our emergency departments in Carrollton and Villa Rica are accredited chest pain centers.
In addition, all our emergency departments provide mental health services through our Willowbrooke at Tanner behavioral health program.
