NHS 'Open for business' primary care materials - updated 29.05.2020
The coronavirus pandemic has resulted in a decrease in people accessing NHS services for a range of conditions that are not related to coronavirus.
This appears to be impacting: adults and children attending at A&E departments for urgent and emergency medical issues, including serious conditions such as stroke and heart attacks; cancer patients attending their ongoing treatments; and expectant mothers attending for regular scans.
The pandemic is also affecting people accessing primary care services. This new phase helps to reassure the public that they wont be a burden on the NHS and that GP surgeries, pharmacies, dental practices, opticians and other NHS services have made changes to the way care is accessed to make it safer for people.
The campaign title ‘open for business’ is not used within the campaign messages.
