NHS 111 can direct you to the best place to get help if you cannot contact your GP during the day, or when your GP is closed (out-of-hours)

NHS 111 can also be used to book same-day appointments at local pharmacists, GPs and Urgent Care Centres, so you can get the right type of treatment

Depending on what you need, you might be advised to:

  • call 999 or go to A&E in an emergency
  • go to an urgent treatment centre
  • see an evening and weekend GP (out-of-hours GP)
  • book a callback from a nurse or doctor 
  • get urgent specialist support, for dental or mental health problems
  • contact your own GP surgery
  • see a pharmacist for help with a minor illness
  • look after yourself safely at home
