This service is a nurse lead advice service and is available 24hrs a day and 365 days a year. When you call NHS Direct, they will ask you to provide some basic information, including details of any medication you may be taking. If you're calling on behalf of someone else you will need to provide this information on their behalf. They will assess your problem and advise you on the best course of action. You may be told how you can look after yourself at home, or they may recommend seeing a pharmacist (chemist).

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 call 999. Chest pains and / or shortness of breath constitute an emergency.
