Urgent Treatment Centre

Our Urgent Treatment Centre has been set up to provide the best possible care for patients with minor injuries and illnesses. The unit helps support the wider Urgent and Emergency Care Department (also known as 'A&E') to focus on providing emergency care for life-threatening conditions.

The UTC is equipped to diagnose and deal with many of the most common injuries and ailments that people have when they attend. The service is provided by emergency nurse practitioners, doctors and GPs.

The unit is open 24 hours and day, seven days a week, and is accessed through the door to the main 'A&E' department at Hillingdon Hospital., at the top of the ramp.

The UTC service is one option in the wide range of local healthcare services available. These include visiting your local pharmacist, bookable GP services, and the GP out-of-hours service. If you need medical help, please call NHS 111 first and they will advise and signpost you as needed.

Anyone with serious injuries or a potentially life-threatening medical emergency should dial 999.
