⚠️We are due to be affected by the national junior doctors’ industrial action between 7am on Wednesday 14th June and 7am on Saturday 17th June.⚠️
We expect there will be long waits in our A&E departments during this time: https://t.co/Pf7DEEgCnX
CHFT have joined the @ResusCouncilUK ReSPECT family and have launched this week. Staff across the Trust have been excited and enthusiastic to start positive conversations with patients about emergency care and treatments @CHFTNHS
Our hospitals are extremely busy and we are asking for your help.
Please only come to A&E if your condition is life or limb-threatening. You will be waiting a long time to be seen, whilst we prioritise those with the most urgent need.
Our hospitals are under significant pressure due to the junior doctors’ industrial action this week.
If you attend A&E with a non-urgent condition, you will be waiting significantly longer than usual.

One Culture of Care is at the heart of everything we do. 💙

⚠️We have seen a huge increase in the number of people attending A&E since Christmas and there are currently very long waiting times.⚠️
We are calling on local people to help us help those most in need by only attending A&E for life or limb-threatening emergencies.
Thank you.
Please don't visit a loved one if you are unwell with cold/flu symptoms/fever or symptoms of gastroenteritis. With lots of respiratory illness around right now, we're doing all we can to keep our patients and staff well in the run up to Christmas. Thank you!
