28/09/2025
Monday 29 September is a Public Holiday for NHS Orkney. All GP surgeries will be closed on the Public Holiday, but in an emergency you can contact a GP in the same way as routine evening/weekend cover. If you are ill when your practice is closed and can’t wait until it reopens, you should call NHS 24 on 111.
Please plan ahead and only order the medication you need to cover the public holiday. You can also find more helpful tips on NHS Infom 👉 https://www.nhsinform.scot/
