The quick care clinic started by South Shore Health in Bridgewater is being extended into March. The two-day-a-week clinic has been at capacity since it opened earlier this month. The clinic has accepted roughly 48 patients per day. It tackles issues like minor cuts, bumps, sore throats, prescription refills and sinus problems. CEO Dr. Peter Vaughan says they’re extending the clinic to meet demand. However, he says hospital ER’s remain busy.
A doctor accepts patients by appointment 3 to 9pm every Monday and Wednesday.
