Opening hours at three north-east Minor Injury Units (MIU) are changing from the week beginning November 11.

Aberdeenshire Health and Social Care Partnership confirmed that Turriff MIU will be open from 8am to 6pm seven days a week.

The MIU at Aboyne Hospital and Stonehave MIU will be open from 8am to 10pm seven days a week.

There will be no change to the Huntly MIU at Jubilee Hospital.

Minor Injury Units can only treat minor injuries that are less than 72 hours old and can only treat children over the age of one year.

MIUs cannot treat illness and should you become unwell out of hours and cannot see your GP then please call NHS 24 on 111.

If you have a medical emergency please call for an ambulance on 999.
