🎄 Whilst we are closed for Christmas, we wanted to let you know what services are available should you need medical attention:

✅ If you are unwell whilst we are closed, visiting your local pharmacy is the best thing to do. Your local pharmacy can support you with general health advice, minor conditions (from conjunctivitis to a sore throat), and conditions needing antibiotics including Tonsillitis and urine infections in women.

✨🚑 If you need urgent NHS care, but it’s not a 999 emergency, please contact NHS 111 or go online at 👉 http://www.111.nhs.uk.
You can also visit the Walk-In Centre at Tameside Hospital. The Walk-In Centre is located next to A&E and is open 9am to 9pm every day.

❄️🦷 Should you need urgent dental treatment, please contact your dentist in the usual way. If you do not have a dentist, you can contact the local dental helpline on ☎️ 0333 332 3800
