Update on Portree Urgent Care Centre - suspension of service

31st May 2022

NHS Highland regrets to announce that due to ongoing unprecedented staffing pressures we have had to suspend service delivery at the Urgent Care Centre in Portree.

We will operate a "see and treat" model of care from the new Broadford Hospital while service improvements are made in north Skye. This model will ensure those who require urgent care are treated as soon as possible.

We are doing everything we can to improve the staffing situation and will provide an update as soon as we can. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.

Anyone requiring urgent care should always contact NHS 24 on 111 before attending the Centre.  People should always call 999 in an emergency.
