Know Who To Turn To
Get the treatment you need - it can sometimes be hard to know what to do if you're unwell:
- For help from a GP – use your GP surgery's website, use an online service or app, or call the surgery.
- For urgent medical help – use the NHS 111 online service, or call 111 if you're unable to get help online.
- For life-threatening emergencies – call 999 for an ambulance.
If you're advised to go to hospital, it's important to go.
Near Me
Near Me is a confidential and secure service which allows you to attend your pre-arranged appointment using a video call, rather than attending in person.

During 2022 we engaged with our workforce to understand what they thought we should prioritise for health and care delivery over the five years to 2027. We also asked our partners, communities and wider population what they felt was important. We have turned these into ambitions and have created NHS Highland's 5 year strategy 2022-2027 - Together We Care.
