This winter, the NHS is encouraging people to get to the help they need by using NHS 111, and we want to remind you of the window stickers that are available to order. This is part of the partnership with the NHS to encourage people to use 111 online or call 111 when they think they need medical help fast.
They are recommending that the sticker be affixed so that both sides of the sticker remain visible. Through this message being placed within homes, it will prompt residents to use NHS 111, either for themselves or a member of their community. NHS 111 helps assess and direct people to the most appropriate service for their medical needs.
The NHS 111 service is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. You can call, go online or use the NHS App to get:
- the right healthcare in your area; or
- a call back from a nurse, doctor or paramedic; or
- advice on self-care.
People should call 111 to speak to someone if they need to:
- discuss complex medical problems;
- discuss worries about a long-term condition; or
- get medical advice for a child under five.
