If you require care or treatment, you can save time by seeking the right care in the right place:
- Often your first port of call should be the NHS inform website. There are lots of self-help guides available for a wide range of ailments and illnesses and information about services, including opening times, that are available to best meet your needs such as your local community pharmacy.
- If you think you need to go to the Emergency Department but it’s not critical or life-threatening, call NHS 24 on 111, day or night, or contact your General Practice.
- If it’s an emergency, you should still call 999 or go straight to the Emergency Department.
