About us

Our emergency departments (A&Es) are very busy at the moment

Due to the extreme pressures in our emergency department, demand for beds and numbers of patients with flu, we have declared a critical incident.

Please consider other services for any minor healthcare needs:

  • Urgent Treatment Centres - accessed via NHS 111
  • Pharmacy First - local pharmacies can provide advice, guidance and medication for common conditions
  • NHS 111 - phone or go online to be directed to the best place for you
  • GP practice
