Due to the red weather warning in place, the Out of Hours GP service (NoWDOC) in Donegal will be limited to a phone service, offering self-care advice, between 6pm and 8pm.

Treatment centre visits for those patients who have been scheduled with an appointment will operate as planned from 8pm and throughout the weekend.
The HSE is advising that you must make an appointment in advance to visit an Out of Hours GP. NoWDOC can be contacted on 0818 400 911.
“We will provide regular updates on services on our webpage https://www2.hse.ie/services/disruptions/ and we will also provide regular updates through local media and on our national and regional social media channels,” a spokesperson said.
