"Minor injury dept Lydney Hospital"

About: Lydney & District Hospital Site

Anything else?

Have used this dept several times with all my children and had excellent care. In reply to anonymous with the young child with a burn who was turned away at 7am, the minor Injury dept is not open at that time, opening hours are 0800 till 2300. The intercom would have been anwered by a ward nurse who is not trained to attend to casualties, neither to dress a would or give a painkiller.

Many thanks for taking the time to share this feedback - apologies we have taken so long to post a reply, we have had some technical issues with NHS Choices and have only recently been able to receive alerts and reply directly. We're glad you have had positive experiences of our services at Lydney, and will certainly pass on your comments to our team there. Opening hours for the Minor Injuries Unit (MIU) at Lydney are 8am-11pm as you say, and further information about the services our teams provide at MIUs can be found on our website http://www.glos-care.nhs.uk/our-services/urgent-care/minor-injury-units Best wishes The team at Gloucestershire Care Services NHS Trust
