Other NHS Services

As well as our practice, there are many other local NHS services you can contact for health advice and information of treatment. Before you do, remember that you can treat many minor ailments such as colds, coughs and indigestion by keeping a well-stocked medicine cabinet at home.

Remember

Keep the medicine chest in a secure, locked place out of reach of small children
Watch expiry dates—do not keep or use medicines past their sell-by date
Take all unwanted and out-of-date medicines back to the pharmacy
