Who is the service for and when is it appropriate for people to contact NHS111?
NHS 111 is suitable for people with urgent physical and mental health conditions when GP practices are closed and the condition cannot wait until their practice is available to help.
SevernSide IUC is not an emergency service – for a medical emergency or life-threatening condition people should always dial 999 or attend a local A&E service.
NHS 111 can also be used 24/7 when people are unsure how to access help with any urgent primary care problem or may need clinical advice for such a problem.
