Urgent care, not A&E.

Urgent Treatment Centres treat children and adults with minor injuries and illnesses that need urgent attention but aren’t life- or limb-threatening.

They’re a good alternative to A&E when you need help quickly but it’s not an emergency.

If you contact NHS 111, they can assess your symptoms and, if appropriate, book you an appointment at your nearest Urgent Treatment Centre, often saving you time and waiting. They can also advise on other nearby centres if needed.

Remember to talk before you walk
Call NHS 111 to check the right place to go and get the care you need, sooner.

If you think you need medical help right now, 111 online can tell you what to do next. Visit 👉 https://letsgetbetter.co.uk/get-the-right-care/

Choose Well. Stay Well

Your GP surgery is here for you.

Your local GP surgery offers a wide range of family health services - from advice on staying well and preventing illness, to vaccinations, examinations, treatment and prescriptions. They can also refer you to other health services when specialist care is needed.

GP practices have a whole team ready to help, including nurses, advanced nurse practitioners, pharmacists and healthcare assistants. You don’t always need to see a GP -the receptionist can help guide you to the right professional for your needs.

Many practices offer urgent appointments, evening and weekend services, as well as online booking, repeat prescriptions and online consultations. Remember to keep your appointment or let the surgery know if you need to cancel or change it.

Visit 👉 https://letsgetbetter.co.uk/get-the-right-care/ or your GP practice website to find out what services are available and how to access them.

Here’s Dr Peter Billingsley highlighting the importance of choosing the right service and using A&E for urgent and emergency care.

A&E is for life-threatening emergencies.
For many conditions, NHS 111, GPs, and Urgent Treatment Centres are the faster option.

Use your phone before you wait for hours.

Let NHS 111 help you find the right care, first time.

Think Pharmacy first

Your local pharmacy is a quick, easy way to get expert healthcare advice for common illnesses like coughs, colds, aches and pains.

Highly trained pharmacy teams can assess symptoms, offer treatment, and in some cases provide prescription medicines without needing a GP appointment.

You can speak to your pharmacist in confidence, often in a private consultation area, about even the most personal health concerns.

Self-care starts with choosing well

Knowing when you can look after yourself, when a pharmacist can help, and when to get advice from your GP makes a real difference.

By choosing the right care for your illness or injury, you’re looking after your health and helping NHS staff care for those who need it most.

It’s just another Monday.

Blue Monday is often called the most depressing day of the year… but that story isn’t quite true.

Mental health doesn’t follow a calendar, and January can feel heavy for many reasons.

This blog is a reminder that support matters every day, not just when a hashtag trends.

If today feels heavy, you’re not alone.
