Health bosses are encouraging people in Great Yarmouth to plan their healthcare over the festive fortnight.
To allow everyone to get the care and advice they need, it’s important to remember that A&E should only be used by people with serious health problems requiring emergency treatment.
If you, or a member of your family, are taken ill or injured over the festive period, you may well be able to access quicker and more appropriate treatment elsewhere.
With advice on common illnesses and the best medicines to treat them, visiting the pharmacist can save you time in the waiting room and help you feel better fast.
