A campaign to ensure residents get the most out of their local health service in 2009 has been launched by Lambeth Primary Care Trust (PCT).
Every Lambeth household should have received a leaflet detailing GP practices in the borough where they can see a doctor or practice nurse earlier in the morning, later in the evening and/or on Saturdays.
The leaflet also details how to get an NHS dental appointment at a dentist near you, and who qualifies for free treatment.
Information on getting help quitting smoking is also provided.
The PCT also urges all Lambeth residents to register with a family doctor to facilitate access to healthcare.
Call 0800 587 8078 for free on weekdays from 9am to 5pm for details about GPs and dentists offering NHS appointments in your area or visit nhs.uk
Call 0800 856 3409 for free for details of Lambeth’s stop smoking services, or visit makesmokinghistory.co.uk
