A MESSAGE FROM CHILLINGTON HEALTH CENTRE

We are doing our best to provide a service to our patients, despite the considerable pressure we are under. The way we operate will change, depending on how the situation develops.
For information and advice on your health, we strongly encourage patients to:
Download the NHS app: IOS – Android
Use our website: wwww.chillingtonsurgery.co.uk
Use NHS 111 online: https://111.nhs.uk
This will help us to look after you when you really need it.

For the latest coronavirus advice, please visit www.nhs.uk/coronavirus
The advice is being regularly updated.

PRESCRIPTIONS

The elderly and vulnerable should call 01548 580371 to arrange prescription home deliveries. The Health Centre requires plenty of notice as there is a weekly or fortnightly delivery schedule.
If your need is more urgent you can, alternately, ask us to help arrange a collect and delivery for you.

GOV.UK WhatsApp Service

To ensure communities are receiving factual information during this uncertain time a new Whats App service has been launched, available for free to everyone with the app.

The new service aims to provide official, trustworthy and timely information and advice about coronavirus (COVID-19), and will further reduce the burden on NHS services.

This will help combat the spread of coronavirus misinformation in the UK, as well as helping ensure people stay home, protect the NHS and save lives.

To use the free GOV.UK Coronavirus Information Service on WhatsApp, simply add 07860 064422 in your phone contacts and then message the word ‘hi’ in a WhatsApp message to get started.

The service will also allow the government to send messages to all opted-in users if required.
