Which service is best for me? Choosing well
Sheffield Clinical Commissioning Group have published a new leaflet to help people choose which service they should access: their pharmacies, their GPs, A&E, or somewhere else?
It can be hard to find the right service when we are injured or become unwell. This flyer helps to explain the different options:
- Self-care
- NHS 111
- Pharmacy
- GP practice
- Walk-in service
- A&E
Who can help with your illness?
You can care for a sore throat at home, but you might need to phone NHS 111 or go to a pharmacy if you're unsure or if you've got a painful cough. If you're feeling poorly or vomiting, you might need to see a doctor or go to a walk-in service. In an emergency, like heavy bleeding, or chest pain, you should go to A&E.
