What to do in a Medical Emergency

If you have a minor medical emergency, during surgery hours you should contact the practice first.

Minor Injuries Units

The minor injuries units offer treatment to anyone with a minor injury, if their own GP Practice is closed or cannot deal with the incident.

The Bridgnorth Community Hospital Minor Injuries Unit (Tel: 01746 762641) is open Monday to Sunday 8.00am to 9.30pm

If in doubt telephone the GP surgery or Minor Injury unit first.
