Treatment at minor injuries

"Treatment at minor injuries"

About: South Tyrone Hospital / Minor Injuries Unit

(as a service user),

I brought my 12 year old son to minor injuries at South Tyrone hospital after he injured his toe. The staff were amazing. My son was seen and received treatment within 30 minutes. The nurse practitioner, staff nurse and receptionist were friendly, knowledgeable and professional at all times. I can't thank them enough. Brilliant service.
