Our Accident & Emergency departments are very busy right now. A&E is intended for life-threatening conditions and the most serious injuries. In such cases, people should call 999 or go to A&E immediately.If you’re unwell and have a minor injury or illness, there are different options available for treatment and advice rather than going straight to A&E. These options could involve advice from home, or treatment which is often closer to you. This could save you time, as waits at A&E can be long for conditions that aren’t life threatening.You can find advice on treating some of the most common injuries and illnesses, and information on where to turn to if you need more support, here: www.nhsggc.scot/…/how-to-manage-some-common…/Further information on getting the right care in the right place can be found here: www.nhsggc.scot/your-health/right-care-right-place/
