*Valley Immediate Care LLC *Announces the Launch of* Valley **e**mmediate
Care*

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE



Brookings, Oregon – Valley immediate Care LLC, a leader in providing
cost-effective, convenient healthcare services to Southern Oregon is
excited to announce the launch of

*Valley **e**mmediate Care *(Trademark pending)

Valley Immediate Care believes that telemedicine has the potential to
increase timely access to healthcare for tens of thousands of rural
Oregonians

*Valley **e**mmediate Care *will provide walk-in access to a provider 7
days a week. This facility will use a state-of-the-art, HIPAA compliant
video conferencing system to connect the patient to a provider.
 Telemedicine techs on site will take and record vital signs. They will
also use high-tech equipment to allow the physician to listen to heart and
lungs, examine ears, nose, mouth and skin.  The facility will also have the
capability to perform basic lab testing enabling illnesses such as strep
throat, influenza, diabetes, urinary tract infection and mononucleosis to
be quickly diagnosed. Treatments are available including breathing
treatments, basic wound care, injections and immunizations. Staff will
electronically send prescriptions via its advanced Agility EMR software and
the SureScripts network.

“Valley Immediate Care believes that this innovative healthcare delivery
system can increase healthcare access by adding access points in rural
localities as well as increase the number of healthcare providers, allowing
providers who are unable to practice in a traditional practice another
option to enable them to remain productive.” Brent Kell Company CEO

The first facility in Brookings opened on October 20th, 2014 and will
likely be the first of many facilities in the near future.

Valley Immediate Care has been providing cost-effective, quality healthcare
to the residents of and the visitors to Southern Oregon since 1999.
