Raigmore Hospital is extremely busy today, with a number of patients requiring unexpected admission.
We are working hard to accommodate them safely. This may mean moving more stable patients to other wards or hospitals, though we will always try to keep people as close to home as possible.
This means waiting times in A&E are much longer than usual. If you need urgent care that is not life-threatening, call NHS24 on 111. NHS 24 will direct you to the most appropriate care, which might be a minor injuries unit, a phone or virtual appointment, a pharmacy or Accident & Emergency at one of our hospitals.
