NHS 24 has created an online student health resource on NHS inform. Covering topics such as how to access NHS care and information and mental health support, the user-friendly health information site provides all the advice needed with one quick, convenient click.
“When going away from home, you should check you have enough of your medicine to cover the duration of your trip. If you discover that you need more, order only what you need and in plenty of time before you head off on your travels.” Dr McNaw
“Fun activities such as spending time in the garden, taking a long walk in the countryside, or even having a BBQ, all have their own hazards. We have therefore put together resources on NHS inform to make it quick and easy for the public to get the summer health advice they need with one quick click.” – John McAnaw, Associate Clinical Director, and Head of Pharmacy at NHS 24
“Using NHS inform first might mean you don’t even need to call us which can leave us more time to help people with perhaps more complex healthcare needs.” – Pauline Howie, NHS 24’s Director of Service Delivery
The campaign encourages people in Scotland to make appropriate use of NHS services and to be prepared for common illnesses and ailments over the spring holidays.
