The HRRMC Buena Vista Health Center, 28374 County Road 317, has expanded its walk-in clinic to six days a week. It is now open Monday through Friday, 1 – 5:30 p.m., in addition to Saturdays, 9 a.m. – 1 p.m.
The walk-in clinic is open to anyone and is on a first-come, first-served basis. Appointments are not available. The clinic treats common medical issues such as burns, sprains, ear infections and the flu. It does not serve as an emergency room, and emergencies will be directed to the hospital’s Emergency Department in Salida.
“Offering a walk-in clinic is part of HRRMC’s overall strategy of providing access to affordable health care,” said HRRMC CEO Bob Morasko. “Urgent care was one of the top requests on the hospital’s most recent community health needs assessment. We charge the same fees at our walk-in clinic as we do for our primary-care patients at the HRRMC Buena Vista Health Center. The Buena Vista Health Center participates in Medicare and Health First Colorado (Medicaid)."
