Non-urgent advice: NHS 111
If you are unwell and cannot wait until the surgery has opened, please call NHS 111 by dialing 111. They can:
– Advise you on the care you need.
– Organise emergency services or an ambulance if necessary.
The NHS 111 is staffed by fully trained advisers supported by experienced nurses, pharmacists, and doctors. The service is available if you require urgent medical help, but it is not a life-threatening situation.
Late Night Pharmacies
Community pharmacists are qualified healthcare professionals who can provide clinical advice and over-the-counter medicines for minor illnesses like coughs, colds, sore throats, tummy troubles, and aches and pains. They have the training to determine if your symptoms require further medical attention and will guide you accordingly.
Pharmacists undergo five years of training in the use of medicines, including managing minor illnesses and providing health advice.
Many pharmacies have convenient hours, including late evenings and weekends, and you don’t need an appointment to see a pharmacist. They also have private consultation rooms to ensure your privacy.
Below you can search for pharmacies close to you. There is the option to only show services that are open at that particular time.
