A CAMPAIGN has been launched to save the £6million spent each year treating south-east London patients with minor ailments.
The Choose Well scheme is designed to ensure Bromley residents choose the right place to get treatment particularly as NHS services come under greater pressure during the winter months.
Bromley Clinical Commissioning Committee chairman Dr Andrew Parson said: "We all pay for the NHS and all want to know that if we’re ill, or any of our family is ill, we can quickly get the care we need.
"Unless you have a life threatening emergency and obviously need hospital admission or investigation, have broken bones or serious injury, the best care is not always hospital."
The campaign, which is being run by NHS South East London, uses a colour code system to show the range of services available.
