The hospital is extremely busy, and we are experiencing a high number of patients attending our Emergency Department who need to be admitted for hospital treatment.
To help us prioritise those in urgent need, we ask patients with non-emergency conditions to consider alternative care options, including injury clinics, your GP or your local pharmacy.
We regret any delays that patients may experience while waiting to be seen, however, all patients are triaged on arrival and are seen according to medical urgency.
If you or someone you care for has a serious or life-threatening condition, please call 999/112 or attend the Emergency Department immediately.
