New free app helps people ‘Wait Less’ for urgent care services in Shropshire, Telford and Wrekin

The NHS across Shropshire, Telford and Wrekin has introduced WaitLess, a free smartphone app designed to help people choose the quickest local option for minor injuries and illnesses.

The app displays live waiting times, queue numbers, and travel time information for local urgent care services across Shropshire, Telford and Wrekin, helping you decide where you may be seen more quickly.

The app includes Urgent Treatment Centres (UTCs) which treat urgent but non-life-threatening conditions such as infections, minor injuries and illnesses, Minor Injury Units (MIUs) nurse-led services for injuries like cuts, sprains and minor burns, along with local pharmacies in the area as an alternative treatment option.

By combining travel, waiting, and treatment time, WaitLess gives patients a clear picture of how long they may spend at each location. This helps people make informed decisions, so they can be seen more quickly and pressure on Emergency Departments (A&E) is reduced.

The app also displays a full list of services available at each site, plus parking and opening time information.
