Staying at a Vacation Rental - urgent care medical treatment options
We all want our vacations to be memorable in a good way, but what if you become ill during your vacation? You are away from your regular physician and its all a bit strange, you don't know where or who to turn to.
You will be pleased to know that there are plenty of options in the Kissimmee area for health care.
Obviously for urgent emergency medical situations, you can and should call 911. But what if its not an emergency? What options do you have?
If you have a minor ailment and just want advice on over the counter items, the Walgreens pharmacy can help. There are plenty around. Also, if you have health insurance, your plan may have a dial a nurse line that you can call for advise.
If you need a doctor, there are now two options in the area.

Thankfully we have not had cause to use them yet, but its nice to know they are around.
A fellow owner did, unfortunately, need the services of a health center. The feedback that they reported was that the Paramount Urgent Care office was cheaper and friendlier than the Centra Care office. They also have slightly better hours. An additional plus, they are right next to a Starbucks should you need a coffee!
For more serious needs, there is a well regarded hospital at Celebration, Florida Hospital Celebration Health
All of the places mentioned are within easy reach of communities such as Windsor Palms Resort, Windsor Hills Resort, Emerald Island Resort, Indian Creek, Rolling Hills, Formosa Gardens etc.
Lets hope that you never need the services of any of these places!
