• You think you need to go to A&E or another NHS urgent care service but are not sure which one is most appropriate; or
• You require health advice or reassurance about what to do next

How does it work?

• When you call 111 you will be assessed by fully trained advisers who are supported by experienced nurses and paramedics. They will ask you questions to assess your symptoms and give you the healthcare advice you need or direct you straightaway to the local service that can help you best.
• If the NHS 111 team think you need an ambulance, they will send one immediately.

Out-of-hours services are generally busy so please think carefully before asking to see a doctor and only do so if you genuinely cannot wait until the surgery re-opens.

In a genuine emergency you should call 999. Chest pains and / or shortness of breath constitute an emergency.
