This year the Easter weekend is 30 March – 2 April 2018.
Residents in Kingston are being encouraged to get ready for a happy healthy Easter holiday.
Kingston’s GP appointments will be available over the long bank-holiday weekend offering both urgent and same-day pre-bookable appointments for registered patients from 8am to 8pm every day.
Residents who regularly take prescription medications should check they have enough to last over the long weekend. Running out of daily medication can have serious consequences for patients, especially those who rely on them to control heart and breathing problems.
Anyone who regularly orders a repeat prescription should order it at least a week before their medication is due to run out. It can take 48 hours to process a repeat prescription under normal circumstances and even longer during extremely busy periods such as the lead up to the Easter Bank Holiday.
Enjoy the Easter break with this checklist.
