Resident doctor strike

From Wednesday 17 to Monday 22 December, resident doctors (formerly known as junior doctors) will be taking strike action. During this time, our services will be under increased pressure.

Getting the right care

Please help us make sure emergency care is available for those who need it most:

  • Only attend A&E in life-threatening emergencies.
  • For non-urgent issues, please contact your GP, your local pharmacy, or NHS 111 (online or by phone).

Appointments and planned care

  • If your appointment is affected, we will contact you directly.
  • If you do not hear from us, please attend your appointment as planned.

Visiting information

You may wish to visit your loved one while they remain in our care. You can book an appointment with us using the contact details listed on the main page.

When arranging to visit your loved one at our hospitals please remember:

  • visits are by appointment only
  • if the death has been referred to HM Coroner, we may need to gain additional permission from them which would mean, we will have to call you back
  • we cannot accommodate multiple appointments
  • appointment times are usually up to 30 minutes in duration
  • we cannot facilitate ritual washing or the burning of candles or incense.
