NHS 111 can help if you have an urgent but not life threatening medical problem and you’re not sure what to do. Advice is available from the NHS 111 online service (for people aged over 5 years) or call 111 to speak to a trained adviser who will assess your symptoms and direct you to the most suitable healthcare service, and if required they can also book an appointment.

If you need treatment for a serious accident and emergency, such as unconsciousness, heavy blood loss, suspected heart attack, stroke, broken bones, please visit the Emergency Department at Warwick Hospital.
