NHS 111
If you have an urgent but not life-threatening medical need, please visit NHS 111 online or call 111 before going straight to A&E.
NHS 111 is available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Depending on the situation NHS 111 can:
- Book you in to be seen quickly and safely, at an Accident & Emergency (A&E) / Emergency Department
- Direct you to an alternative, more appropriate local service, such as an urgent care centre
- Connect you to a nurse, emergency dentist, pharmacist or GP
- Arrange a face-to-face appointment, if required
- Tell you how to get any medicine you need
- Help you with self-care advice
