To help us provide the best care for our patients, we ask people to only attend our emergency departments if they have a life-threatening injury or illness. Please choose the right healthcare service for your needs. This will ensure you’re treated in the right place, first time.

If you have a loved one who’s ready to be discharged, please help us by ensuring they can get home safely and promptly. Your support is crucial in helping us deliver the care that everyone deserves.

Attending our emergency departments for non-life-threatening conditions will mean an extremely long wait. If you need medical assistance, please speak to NHS 111, your GP, pharmacy, or urgent treatment centre.

Thank you for your support during this time.
