Over the bank holiday weekend please think which health service is right for you:
· For less urgent health needs visit www.nhs.uk for self-care advice.
· Some NHS services such as GP surgeries and pharmacies may be closed or running on a reduced service.
· Selected pharmacies will be available for prescriptions, non-urgent medical advice, and treatment of common ailments.
· People who need medical help that isn’t an emergency should contact NHS 111 in the first instance by visiting Get help for your symptoms - NHS 111 or by calling 111. NHS 111 can help direct you to the most appropriate local health service if you aren’t sure where to go.
Please also make sure you get your prescription medicines before your pharmacy or GP practice closes for the holidays. You can order prescriptions via GP or pharmacy websites, by calling them, or via the NHS app.
You can find more information on accessing services over a bank holiday, as well as information on bank holiday pharmacy opening times on the NHS South Yorkshire website here Staying Well this Bank Holiday :: South Yorkshire I.C.B.
