Ambulatory Care

Ambulatory care refers to medical services provided to patients who do not stay overnight in a hospital. It includes treatments, check-ups, diagnostic tests, and minor procedures that can be completed in outpatient settings like clinics, doctors' offices, or same-day surgery centers. This type of care allows patients to receive necessary healthcare while returning home the same day, promoting convenience and often reducing costs. It’s suitable for managing ongoing health issues, preventive care, and less complex medical interventions, helping maintain health and catching problems early without the need for hospitalization.
