店内便利诊所

便利诊所在美国是一个颇具规模的行业。美国的便利诊所,又称驻店诊所或限制功能型诊所,都是与常规医疗诊所相对应的“初级保健”概念。在美国,大型连锁式的便利诊所很多,主要包括三种类型:一、药店便利诊所。这是美国便利诊所的主流部分,美国最大的两个连锁便利诊所品牌是两大连锁药店Walgreens的“呵护健康”(Take Care)和CVS经营的“一分钟诊所”(Minute Clinic)。二、厂区便利诊所。这类诊所品牌主要与各大企业合作,在厂区或办公地点建立进驻式诊所。三、独立便利诊所。这类诊所独立经营,通常是多种业态同时渗透。

Convenient care clinics (CCCs) are health care clinics located in retail stores, supermarkets and pharmacies that treat uncomplicated minor illnesses and provide preventative health care services. They are sometimes called "retail clinics", “retail-based clinics” or "walk-in medical clinics." CCCs are usually staffed by nurse practitioners (NPs) or physician assistants (PAs). Some CCCs, however, are staffed by physicians.
