After Hours
The
"Is Your Child Sick?" widget in the mobile app or at the bottom of this page is
free of charge
and may help guide you as to the next steps for care. "Is Your Child Sick?" follows the national pediatric triage protocols by Barton Schmitt and is the same protocol that the after-hours triage nurse service uses.
If you need to speak with someone after hours, please call the main office number 919-859-9991. The answering service will connect you with the triage nurse or our physician on call. You may request a call for care advice from the after hours triage nurse by clicking
