The NoWDOC service is calling on the public to “bear with them” during the busy Christmas period.
The GP service will be open 24/7 from this evening until the morning of Friday 27th October.
Maura Gillen, General Manager, HSE Primary Care, Donegal said “We would ask people to please bear with us when they contact the NoWDOC Service over the Christmas period as we expect to receive a high volume of calls.
“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.”
The public is reminded that NoWDOC 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.
