If your child is experiencing a life threatening emergency, call 911 on your phone. If your child needs to see a doctor immediately and we do not have any available appointments, you can take your child to the Inova Fairfax Hospital Emergency Department or local urgent care facility as appropriate. Inova Cares for Children can provide you with a list of locations. Our nurses can also provide phone advice to help you make a decision about the necessary care for your child.
