National industrial action is scheduled to take place on 𝗪𝗲𝗱𝗻𝗲𝘀𝗱𝗮𝘆, 𝟭𝟰 𝗢𝗰𝘁𝗼𝗯𝗲𝗿 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲. If the industrial action proceeds, it is expected to have a significant impact on hospital services, with many planned appointments and procedures likely to be cancelled or postponed.

Patients and service users do not need to take any action at this time. All appointments should be attended as scheduled unless patients are contacted directly by the hospital.

We recognise that this may cause concern and inconvenience for patients and their families. The hospital's priority is to maintain safe patient care and keep those affected informed as plans are finalised.
