Advice from NHS about strike action

Junior Doctors are on strike from Saturday 24 – Wednesday 28 February 2024, and the NHS advise that hospitals will be under a lot of pressure again. They advise:

  • Only go to the Emergency Department (A&E) or call 999 for a life-threatening emergency or serious injury
  • If you are unwell, contact your GP
  • If you cannot contact your GP, go to NHS 111 online
  • For a mental health emergency go to NHS 111 online
  • And you can also visit your local pharmacy for expert advice and medicines.

There’s more information on their website, here.
