This industrial action will take place across the healthcare system, impacting work in the general acute hospitals, including A&E – which will affect liaison services and referrals into A&E.

GP practices will continue to be open during the junior doctors strike. Please continue to attend your GP and dental appointments, unless you are contacted and told otherwise.

If you need medical help, continue to use 111 online, and in emergencies please call 999.
