Today's updates

Today's appointment demand

ECONSULT IS NOW FOR ACCESS TO SELF-HELP ONLY

WE HAVE CHANGED ACCESS TO ONLINE CONSULTATIONS

eConsult, our online consultation service, has contributed to a doubling of demand over recent months. In order to maintain safe working practices, we are returning to a more traditional service. eConsult is still available, however its availability and scope will be reduced.

For more information please visit our status update page.

In line with current NHS guidance and practice philosophy, patients are encouraged to self-care and self-refer to appropriate sources of help where possible (if you're not sure who to see first, use our symptom checker or visit our help page), and find out how we're managing your condition during covid. To access support for low mood, anxiety or mental health issues, please visit our dedicated mental health support page.

eConsult remains available, but will be for access to self-help only.

If you need medical help, please ring us during working hours, call 111 , use the NHS 111 online service or visit NHS Health A-Z . If we have reached capacity for the day, any further assessments will be on the basis of clinical need and urgency only.

LOW MOOD, ANXIETY OR MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES?

Start accessing help and support now

We've seen a huge increase in the numbers of patients whose mental health and wellbeing have been affected due to the current situation.

For advice on self-help, self-referral to counselling and other support, including what to do in a crisis please download our counselling and self-referral info leaflet .

We have also collected many helpful resources to support patients and we strongly encourage you to visit our mental health help and support area so that you can start to get to help that you need.

You can also ring the Mental Health Support Line which is available 24/7 to any Derbyshire resident of any age, the number to call is 0800 028 0077 .

You can self-refer to any of these services without needing to speaking to a GP first. These services will also refer you to other services where deemed clinically appropriate.
