Advice to Parents and Carers
Our thanks to Neighbourhood Watch for this update.
This is a challenging time for parents and children particularly if children are unwell and you are worried.
It can be difficult to know what to do – if you should ring 111, take them to a GP, or attend the Emergency Department.
The attached RCPCH guidance for Parents/Carers supports you to make the right decision.
- If you are in the GREEN section care for them at home or ring 111 if you are worried
- If you are in the AMBER section ring your GP or 111
- If you are in the RED section go to nearest Emergency Department or ring 999.
GP practices and hospitals are open if you require them.
Please read the attached guidance.
