If you need urgent care, but it’s not life-threatening, you should call NHS 24 on 111 before going to A&E. Help us keep you and the NHS safe. If it’s an emergency, you should still call 999 or go straight to A&E. Find out more ➡️ NHSinform.scot/right-care #RightCareRightPlace

We absolutely support this message from @SFRSYourSafety; we are really grateful to the public for the support they are showing all health & social care staff right now. Please do NOT light sky lanterns.
Sky lanterns pose a significant fire risk to our countryside. This could place unnecessary pressure on the emergency services, and we would always discourage their use 🔥🚫 Please find a different way to show your support for the NHS. ➡️ firescotland.gov.uk/news-cam…

This poster from the Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health explains who you should contact and when.​ If you need to come into our Emergency Departments, there are clear streams for those patients with possible COVID-19 symptoms and those who are otherwise unwell. 2/2
