NHS east Kent Back to School guide

Along with tips on dealing with some common childhood ailments, it promotes the NHS website and app - Health Help Now. This has been developed by GPs, hospital doctors, paramedics and other health professionals to help people find the right service for a wide range of symptoms.

It is particularly useful for parents of younger children who may be unsure as to whether they need to see a GP, minor injury service or go to A&E.

Please send this guide to all your parents, and do feel free to add it to the school’s website, and share it with your staff.
