    As lockdown restrictions ease please don't fall back in to old habits. Unless you need 999 you should use NHS 111 first 💻 📞 before going to A&E or to the Urgent Treatment/walk-in centres. You will be given a timeslot at the most appropriate place for your need.

    Looking after your health is the best way to make sure you don't need to see a doctor or need to go to hospital. There are lots of options though if you do need health advice. Make sure you use the right one for your need.
