With the Bank Holiday approaching, it's important to know how to access NHS services if you need help over the long weekend. πŸ’™

Many GP practices will be closed on Bank Holiday days, but there are still a range of NHS services available if you need medical advice, treatment or urgent care. πŸ₯

βœ… Use NHS 111 online for medical advice and support
βœ… Call 111 if you need urgent medical help but it's not an emergency
βœ… Visit your local pharmacy for advice on common illnesses and minor injuries
βœ… Use NHS online services to manage prescriptions and access health information
βœ… Call 999 or attend A&E for life-threatening emergencies only

If you take regular medication, remember to order any repeat prescriptions in plenty of time before the Bank Holiday to avoid running out. πŸ’Š

Planning ahead can help you enjoy the long weekend and ensure you know where to turn if you need healthcare support. β˜€οΈ

Alconbury Dispensary - Important Update for Our Patients

As many of you will be aware, the short notice closure of Alconbury Chemist means that we have welcomed a large number of patients back to our dispensing service. This has inevitably resulted in a significant increase in the volume of work being processed by our Dispensary team.

We have been working incredibly hard to manage this increased workload while continuing to provide a safe and efficient service for all our patients. We kindly ask that patients allow 5 working days for repeat prescription requests to be processed.

We are pleased to share that we have a plan in place, with a new Dispenser joining our team imminently, which will help us increase capacity with a return to our usual turnaround time of 3 working days.

In the meantime, we would like to thank our patients for their understanding and patience. Please remember that our staff are doing their very best during this challenging period. A little kindness goes a long way, and your support is greatly appreciated as we navigate this sudden increase in demand.

Thank you for your continued understanding and cooperation.

Have you been invited for an Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm (AAA) screening? It’s important to attend πŸ’™

AAA screening is offered to men in England during the year they turn 65. The screening test looks for a swelling (aneurysm) in the aorta, the main blood vessel that carries blood from your heart to the rest of your body 🩺

An abdominal aortic aneurysm often causes no symptoms, which means many people don't know they have one. If an aneurysm grows and bursts, it can be life-threatening, which is why early detection is so important ⚠️

The screening itself is quick, painless and similar to an ultrasound scan. Most appointments take less than 10 minutes and can provide reassurance or help identify any problems early πŸ‘

You'll usually only need to be screened once, unless an aneurysm is found and requires monitoring πŸ‘¨β€βš•οΈ

If you've received an invitation, don't ignore it. Attending your appointment could save your life πŸ’™
