Chesterfield CFRs

Our staff and volunteers work tirelessly to help patients who need us, whether it’s patient-facing or via the phone in our control rooms. Violence and aggression against them is never acceptable. They deserve to #WorkWithoutFear.

There are things we can all do to stay well this winter. Reducing how many people are seriously unwell means fewer people will need emergency help. For more advice visit nhs.uk/live-well/seas…
