Emerald Urgent Care is proud to announce a new partnership with the Ulster Farmers’ Union (UFU) as a Platinum Corporate Member, strengthening our commitment to supporting the health and wellbeing of farming and rural communities across Northern Ireland.
For those working in agriculture, finding time to access healthcare is not always straightforward. Long working days, seasonal pressures and the day-to-day demands of running a farm can make it difficult to fit a traditional healthcare appointment around work.
At Emerald Urgent Care, we believe accessing healthcare should be as convenient as possible. Our services are designed to give patients greater flexibility, with options including same-day appointments, walk-in clinics and virtual consultations.
Whether it's an illness that needs assessing, a minor injury, an ongoing health concern or simply something that cannot wait several weeks for an appointment, our aim is to help people access appropriate healthcare when they need it.
Supporting Northern Ireland’s farming community
The Ulster Farmers’ Union has represented farmers and farming families across Northern Ireland for more than a century, championing the interests of the agricultural community and supporting those who work within it.
Through our new partnership, Emerald Urgent Care looks forward to working alongside the UFU to help raise awareness of health and wellbeing within the farming community and to make it easier for farmers and their families to access healthcare when they need it.
The partnership also reflects our wider commitment to improving access to healthcare across Northern Ireland, including for people living and working in rural areas where accessing services can sometimes involve additional travel and time away from work.
Healthcare that works around you
We understand that taking half a day away from the farm for an appointment may simply not be practical. That is why Emerald Urgent Care provides a range of flexible ways to access care.
Depending on the service required, patients can access same-day appointments, attend one of our walk-in clinics, or speak to a healthcare professional through a virtual consultation.
We are delighted to become a Platinum Corporate Member of the Ulster Farmers’ Union and look forward to building a strong relationship with the organisation and the farming communities it represents.
