Home address visibility for healthcare staff

NHS Western Isles is encouraging members of the public to ensure that their home addresses (numbers/names, etc) are made as clear as possible on properties, gates, or walls, so that healthcare staff providing care or treatment are able to find properties as quickly and easily as possible.

We are aware in certain areas that addresses/croft numbers are not clearly visible from the road, and often cannot be accessed on Satellite Navigation systems. 

By helping make your address, and the addresses of those you care for, details clearer, this will help us to ensure that care and treatment can continue to be delivered in as quick a timescale as possible.

Don’t forget, you can also view/update your address on the Royal Mail’s Postcode Finder at www.royalmail.com/rml-shared-find-a-postcode
