Staying in a Windsor Palms Vacation Rental - urgent care medical treatment options
We all want our vacations to be memorable in a good way, but what if you become ill during your vacation? You are away from your regular physician and its all a bit strange, you don’t know where or who to turn to.
You will be pleased to know that there are plenty of options close by to the Windsor Palms Resort for health care.
Obviously for urgent emergency medical situations, you can and should call 911. But what if its not an emergency? What options do you have?
If you have a minor ailment and just want advice on over the counter items, the Walgreens pharmacy can help. There are plenty around. Also, if you have health insurance, your plan may have a dial a nurse line that you can call for advise.
If you need a doctor, there are now two options in the area.

Thankfully we have not had cause to use them yet, but its nice to know they are around.
A fellow owner did, unfortunately, need the services of a health center. The feedback that they reported was that the Paramount Urgent Care office was cheaper and friendlier than the Centra Care office. They also have slightly better hours. An additional plus, they are right next to a Starbucks should you need a coffee!
For more serious needs, there is a well regarded hospital at Celebration, Florida Hospital Celebration Health.
Lets hope that you never need the services of any of these places!

Signing the way to the Windsor Palms Resort
Yes, after many years hard work by the HOA board and our Jerry, our community manager, the Windsor Palms vacation rental community has a new entrance sign. This photo was taken soon after this work was completed and, with time, the grass will grow in and the area will look much nicer. Ever since the entry road and gatehouse to Windsor Palms was relocated, there has been a temporary sign at the entrance. Much red tape has meant that it has taken years for our new sign to be erected, but patience is a virtue and we are now looking pretty again!

You’ve got a friend in me!
I just love seeing what influences certain parts of a Disney movie. If you are like me, you will love this clip.
Pro dancers Cheryl Burke and Tony Dovolani from Dancing with the Stars choreographed a special Paso Doble to the Gipsy Kings’ version of “You’ve Got A Friend In Me”. They visited Pixar to perform their dance for the Toy Story 3 animators who drew inspiration from this unique Paso Doble while animating Buzz dancing with Jessie for the movie!
