Our Urgent Care provides help when it’s not life-threatening

Minor Injuries Units (MIUs) and Urgent Treatment Centres (UTCs) can treat you if your injury is not life threatening or serious.

Urgent Care

Did you know?

Hi, I’m Nicky, a Advanced Nurse Practitioner at Weymouth Urgent Treatment Centre.

Using your MIU or UTC allows staff at the Emergency Department to concentrate on people with serious, life-threatening conditions. You will probably see a shorter wait for your treatment too.
