NHS – choosing the right service
The NHS has published guidance on what you can do if you are feelling unwell as high levels of seasonal illness, including flu, and vomiting and diarrhoea bugs, mean ambulances, hospitals, GP surgeries and other NHS services can come under severe pressure at this time of year.
Published: 19 January 2026
The NHS has stated:
People are being asked to help by continuing to choose the right service for their needs and by taking simple steps to help them and loved ones stay well.
Local services, including hospitals, have plans to help them manage high demand.
Sometimes when services are busy there can be delays. Staff will do all they can to minimise these, but please continue to treat both them and other patients with respect.
