NoWDOC GP Out of Hours Service Christmas/New Year Opening Hours

 

The NoWDOC service, which provides an urgent GP family Doctor service to patients in Co. Donegal and south Leitrim, has issued its Christmas/New Year opening hours.

 

The service is designed to provide urgent GP care to patients and is not a substitute for the Emergency Ambulance Service, who are the appropriate service to deal with medical emergencies where they arise.

According to Maura Gillen, General Manager Primary Care, CH CDLMS “We would ask people to please bear with us when they contact the NoWDOC Service over the Christmas period and to expect delays due to the high volume of calls we are receiving.  We will continue to ensure urgent calls are prioritised and dealt with first. We also advise that patients and service users ensure that prescriptions and medicines are arranged with their own GP and pharmacy before the holiday period commences.”
