  • you require health information or reassurance of what to do next

Why should you use it

  • NHS is a fast and easy way to get the right help wherever you are and whatever time
  • it can help to free up 999 and local A&E emergency departments

How does it work

  • They will assess your symptoms, give you health care advice if you need it or book you an appointment.
