ACMC Express Care is the
only minor-treatment facility in
Ashtabula County backed by a full-
service Emergency Department.
That is important because
sometimes a minor illness or
injury can actually be something
more serious. If it is, Express
Care patients can take comfort
in knowing they are connected
to a full-service Emergency
Department with physicians
in 28 specialties available 24/7.
ACMC Express Care is also fully
integrated with the hospital’s
electronic medical record, so the
treatment and results of testing
done through Express Care are
immediately available the next
time you see your physician or
provider in the office.
Laboratory services are
offered on a walk-in basis. Blood
will be drawn for routine tests
including CBC (complete blood
count), cholesterol, blood sugar,
triglycerides, immune system
disorders, clotting issues, anemia,
infections, hemoglobin, hematocrit,
metabolic panel, blood enzymes
and more.
Physical therapy is led by
ACMC’s licensed physical therapists
who evaluate and treat patients
affected by a variety of conditions
including stroke, back, neck or
extremity pain; musculoskeletal
injuries; nerve injuries; balance
and dizziness conditions; fractures;
joint replacement; athletic injuries;
coordination problems; and work-
related injuries.
Digital x-ray is offered on a
walk-in basis. X-rays can be used
to identify pneumonia, pulmonary
edema, kidney stones, gallstones,
bowel obstructions, broken bones
and more.
Digital mammography is
offered by appointment and is the
gold standard tool for diagnosing
breast cancer. A digital
mammogram uses the same
compression as a traditional exam,
but the test is much faster—no
waiting for film to be developed;
immediate evaluation of the
image quality; ability to adjust
image for brightness, darkness, or
contrast and size. To schedule your
mammogram at Conneaut Family
Health Center, call the ACMC
Centralized Scheduling number at
440-997-6590 .
