The Health Service Executive (HSE) in Ireland have developed a practical guide to help you (the patient) when you are sick or feeling under the weather. This simple guide will direct us in the most appropriate way when we don’t quite feel ourselves or if we need to seek further treatment when we are sick.

This is a very useful resource and nicely brings together a checklist for us in our ultimate time of need. It is well worth a read and if anything it shows that we are not alone when we are sick and help is always available in many differing forms.
