- Home visits are also attended to inside these hours, and therefore the Health Centre may be unattended for short periods.
- The Health Centres are staffed by Registered Nurses. Regrettably they are unable to provide a 24 hour service. Occasionally it is possible (due to special circumstances) to provide a service outside normal opening hours (eg an ongoing wound dressing requested by a doctor).
- All after hours medical emergencies should be referred to either the local Ambulance service and/or duty doctor at your nearest hospital.
