This section has information about our services during the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. It is updated regularly based on the changing local and national situation and Government guidance, so please check here for our latest information.

Our hospitals are very busy, but it is important that you continue to get the care that you need safely. Our Emergency Departments are open but please only come in if it is a serious or life-threatening emergency. If you need urgent medical help, use the NHS 111 online service.

If you have an appointment at the hospital we may contact you to postpone it, or to change it to a phone or video appointment.

If you are coming into one of our hospitals, we have introduced new measures to protect our patients, visitors and staff.

Visit our Services pages if you need information on a specific service.
