Orsett minor injuries unit is open 10am to 7:30pm Monday to Sunday but will be closed Christmas Day and Boxing Day.
Your pharmacy can offer medical advice on a range of conditions including coughs, colds, aches and pains, all without the need for an appointment. Over the Christmas period, your regular pharmacy may be shut or have different opening times on the bank holidays. Please check your pharmacy opening times before you visit to ensure they are open.
If you have an urgent medical problem that’s not life threatening, or you’re not sure what to do, just visit 111.nhs.uk. You will be directed to the service that best meets your needs. You can also call 111 which is available 24 hours a day 7 days a week.
