Today we remember Florence Nightingale, who died on 13 August 1910.
Known as the “Lady with the Lamp”, Nightingale gained fame for her role in improving sanitary conditions in military hospitals during the Crimean War.
Between 1854 and 1856, she led a team of nurses caring for wounded soldiers, transforming the standards of care through better hygiene, cleanliness and compassion. Her work helped significantly reduce death rates and laid the foundations for modern nursing.
Her nickname came from her nightly rounds with a lamp, as she tended to injured soldiers and brought comfort during some of their darkest moments.
More than a century later, Florence Nightingale’s legacy continues to inspire generations.
We remember her dedication, courage and lasting impact.

Following a period of sustained and significant demand, we have declared a critical incident.

The hot weather is contributing to increased demand, alongside ongoing pressure across the wider health and care system.

We are focusing our efforts on patients who need us most. People contacting us with less serious conditions may experience longer waits and, in some cases, will be clinically assessed and directed to alternative care.

If you need medical help but it is not life‑threatening, please consider using NHS 111, a GP, pharmacist or urgent treatment centre.

We are asking everyone to take steps to stay well in the heat, including keeping hydrated, avoiding the hottest parts of the day and checking on vulnerable friends, family members and neighbours.

Please only call 999 in a life‑threatening emergency.

🌡️ Do you know the difference between heat exhaustion and heat stroke?

With high temperatures forecast for today and the rest of the week, it's important to recognise the signs of heat-related illness and know when someone needs urgent help.

✅ Heat exhaustion can usually be treated by moving to a cooler place, drinking fluids and resting
🚨Heat stroke is a medical emergency and can be life-threatening. If someone has a very high temperature, becomes confused, loses consciousness or has a seizure, call 999 immediately.

Take a moment to familiarise yourself with the symptoms in our graphic - it could help you protect yourself, a family member, friend or neighbour during the current hot weather.

Remember to:
💧Drink plenty of water
🌳Stay in the shade where possible
👕Where light, loose-fitting clothing
☀️Avoid strenuous activity during the hottest part of the day
👩‍🦳Check on older relatives, neighbours and anyone who may be vulnerable to the heat

Knowing the difference could help save a life.
