Severe disruption expected ⚠️

British Medical Association and Hospital Consultants and Specialists Association members will take part in the industrial action from 6.59am on April 11 until 6.59am on April 15.

Dr Levy said: “We ask people to continue to use services wisely during industrial action and take simple steps to help ensure care is available to those who need it most. If you need health advice on a day of strike action, but it is not an emergency, try NHS 111 Online and a clinician will call you back if needed. Please continue to only use 999 or A&E in emergency and life-threatening cases - when someone is seriously ill or injured, or their life is at risk.

“The public’s support during previous periods of industrial action has been invaluable and we are immensely grateful to them for continuing to use NHS services appropriately during these times of pressure.”
