The Minor Injuries Unit at Ysbyty Cwm Cynon will be temporarily closed from today (September 8th) until further notice.

If you have a minor injury that needs urgent treatment and you would normally go to Ysbyty Cwm Cynon, you should instead go to the A&E department at your nearest hospital – for most people, this will be Prince Charles Hospital.

The temporary closure is due to short term staffing issues which we anticipate will be rapidly resolved. We will let you know as soon as the unit reopens. Thanks for your understanding.

As usual, we would ask you to attend A&E or minor injuries only when necessary. If it’s not urgent, you can use the NHS 111 symptom checker to get the care you need quicker: 111.wales.nhs.uk
