Ramsey’s Minor Injuries and Illnesses Unit will be closed from 3pm due to staff sickness.
It will re-open on Tuesday from 8am.
Manx Care said the service requires two practitioners for the safe provision of patient care and “therefore to prioritise the welfare of both patients and staff, we are asking people who would ordinarily have attended the MIU to attend the Emergency Department at Noble’s Hospital instead, where a minor injuries service will be provided”.
Alternative services to attend today are:
The Island’s Community Pharmacy Network, for support with minor ailments or illnesses
For those of you who don’t have a dentist, the Community Dental Service for dental emergencies ( https://www.gov.im/dentists )
The Minor Eyecare Conditions Scheme (MECS), operated by Specsavers in Douglas
If you think that you have a life-threatening emergency, you should always call 999.
