HEALTH & WELLBEING: More GP and nurse appointments available in Rotherham
THE NHS in Rotherham is now providing local people with extended access to routine GP and nurse appointments across the borough on weeknights and weekends.
This will ensure that there is a choice of appointments beyond what is provided at their GP practice.
The improved access gives residents who may be unable to attend during the week access to a GP or nurse appointment without having to take time off work.

Local pharmacists can also give advice on a wide range of common health problems and the best way to treat them, which can save patients a trip to the doctor.
People looking for a routine appointment in the evenings or at weekends are encouraged to speak to a receptionist at their own practice who can book them in and will advise where they to attend.
