What to do if medical care is needed when on vacation in Orlando.

If you or a member  of your party becomes ill when on vacation in and around Orlando, first assess the illness, if it is a minor ailment you could find a pharmacist who would probably offer you advice and over the counter medicine, pharmacists can be found in Walmart, Walgreens, Publix stores and in local shopping areas. If more serious care is needed call 911 for an ambulance or go to Centra Care who offer hospital services which cover most Insurances,  without insurance medical fees could be quite expensive.
