Adirondack Medical Center operates four health centers providing primary, immediate and preventive care services for the whole family.
Primary care is the point at which a person first seeks assistance from the health care system.
It is general health care treating short and long-term illnesses for patients of all ages from infancy through geriatrics. Immediate care is the treatment of urgent, but not life threatening injuries or illnesses. Immediate care is not intended to include patients requiring transport by ambulance nor is it designed to treat medical emergencies such as heart attacks, strokes or major injuries. Preventive care includes education, fitness, and such preventive measures as periodic health examinations, screenings, and immunizations . The Health Centers also provide EKG's, allergy injections, and on-site blood drawings and specimen collection for lab testing .
