GP practices only\u00a0have access to a small number of the total appointments available.<\/div><p>When you contact your NHS 111 or your GP practice, they will ask about your symptoms so they can book the most appropriate same\u2011day appointment for you. This reduces the number of places you need to contact and avoids unnecessary waits or trips to services that may not be suitable.<\/p><p>This approach helps ensure resources are used in the best way for everyone in Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland. It also supports the NHS aim of matching each patient to the right level of care, from the right health professional, in the right part of the NHS, first time &#8211; known as Right Care, Right Place.<\/p><p>Patients will still be able to walk in at:<\/p><ul><li>Loughborough Urgent Treatment Centre<\/li><li>Merlyn Vaz Urgent Treatment Centre<\/li><li>Melton Minor Injury Unit<\/li><li>Oadby Urgent Treatment Centre<\/li><li>Market Harborough Minor Injury Unit<\/li><\/ul><p><strong><br \/>Other improvements<\/strong><\/p><ul><li>Appointments are now 15 minutes long, five minutes longer than they were previously, so people can get the care they need in one visit<\/li><li>All appointments are now with a GP, rather than a mix of different professionals<\/li><li>More general practice appointments are now available during evenings, weekends and bank holidays.<\/li><li>There is now a broader variety of appointments across pharmacies, GP surgeries and health centres, with the number of Pharmacy First appointment slots increasing to 210,000 a year across Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland.<\/li><\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section data-particle_enable=\"false\" data-particle-mobile-disabled=\"false\" class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-3aabf17 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"3aabf17\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-background-overlay\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-46d0bb2\" data-id=\"46d0bb2\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6a842a2 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"6a842a2\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Why improvements were needed<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a866730 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"a866730\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Same-day services have developed over time and now vary across Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland. There were different names, opening times and referral processes, making it hard for patients to understand what\u2019s available and when to use each service. In some cases, appointments were going unused or were not in the most appropriate setting for a person\u2019s needs. For example, some conditions seen in the old urgent care centres could have been better treated by a pharmacy, an urgent treatment centre, or through routine GP care.<\/p><p>We also now have new services, such as Pharmacy First, which allows people to get treatment and certain prescriptions directly from their local pharmacy, often without needing to see a GP. Accessing Pharmacy First can be arranged by a GP practice, by NHS 111, or by walking into a
