Choosing the right service

Do you need medical help but you're unsure where to go? Choose the right place to get the right help quickly, such as a pharmacy, NHS 111 or an urgent treatment centre.

Emergency departments are for people with serious and life-threatening illnesses and injuries, such as severe chest pains, serious head injuries, loss of consciousness or breathing difficulties. Please choose an alternative service if you have a less serious condition.

Get the right help when you need it.

Ever spotted the letters "PNG" on an NHS letter or your NHS App and wondered what they meant? 🩺📱

They sound complex, but this is what they mean:
Patient Need Groups (PNG): This is an automated NHS tool that groups patients based on their medical history. It helps your GP surgery understand who might need a bit of extra support.

Healthcare paperwork is full of acronyms, but they are just tools to help the NHS tailor care to your specific needs! ❤️

This is "Patient Need Groups and neighbourhood teams" by Kent Community Health on Vimeo, the home for high quality videos and the people who love them.

Kent and Medway NHS Talking Therapies is proud to host a collaborative event in support of World Mental Health Day 2026.

This event will bring together a range of community mental health organisations from across Kent and Medway to raise awareness of the support services available locally for both service users and professionals.

Attendees will have the opportunity to meet local mental health providers, learn more about the treatment and support available, and access information, advice, and guidance from participating organisations. The event aims to promote wellbeing, encourage open conversations around mental health, and strengthen connections between services and the local community.

We hope to see you there!

As the weather warms up, it is crucial to protect babies and young children under the age of 6 from direct sunlight, as their skin is much more delicate than an adult's. In the UK, parents and carers should follow key sun safety practices throughout the peak months of March to October:

Cover Up: Dress children in clothing that keeps their skin fully covered and shielded from the sun.

Seek Shade: Avoid direct sunlight and spend time in the shade during peak hours, specifically between 11:00 AM and 3:00 PM.

Apply SPF: Use a minimum of SPF 30 sunscreen on all areas of skin left uncovered by clothing.
