I like it hot, but not this hot...etc etc...

But seriously, if you are not enjoying the weather and you wish to cancel. That's not problem at all, please notify me promptly though! As I may be sat in the sink trying to cool off too.

I don’t often ask for google reviews from patients. But when I get a good one it’s good to share…😆🙌🏻

Semi-Bespoke Orthoses ready to go for a patient with Plantar Fasciitis.

Lovely little devices…used in conjunction with some simple stretching can work really nicely.

NEW PRODUCT ALERT!*

FOR THE TREATMENT OF VERRUCA/PLANTAR WARTS.**

*it’s not new, it’s been on the market for a while. But we’re not one to jump onto a fad.

**it doesn’t guarantee successful treatment - it’s an extra arrow in the quiver of treatment options.

What you’ll likely get if you come in with a worry about verrucas is diagnosis, education, reassurance - and then an honest discussion about treatments, outcomes and expectations.

Further to our public statement on Monday (13th January), we remain in a Critical Incident Escalation due to the sustained pressures on our hospital system. This decision allows us to focus on ensuring safe care for our patients during this exceptionally challenging time.

Our services continue to experience significant demand as a result of increased emergency attendances of very unwell patients, high levels of winter virus infections on our wards, and continuing high numbers of patients awaiting discharge. We would like to thank our staff, who are doing an incredible job ensuring they provide the best care they can for our patients.

We kindly ask for your continued support by only attending our hospitals if it is a life-threatening emergency or you have a very serious injury. For non-emergency medical needs, we encourage you to consider visiting your local pharmacy or GP, using online resources such as NHS 111 Wales for advice and guidance, or calling NHS 111 if you need urgent primary care outside of GP surgery hours.

You can also find the details of alternative services by visiting our online Gwent Health Guide: https://bit.ly/49ZpXI3

We are deeply grateful for your continuing patience and support as we work to manage these pressures and restore our services to normal levels. Thank you for helping us ensure that those most in need receive timely care.

FYI

As a result of sustained pressure and risk throughout the hospital system over the last week, we have declared a Critical Incident this afternoon.

We have taken this decision as our services are currently experiencing exceptional demand due to a combination of increased emergency attendances of very sick patients, high levels of winter virus infections on our wards, and an increase in the number of patients who are delayed in hospital awaiting discharge.

We continue to ask for your support by only attending if it is life threatening, or you have a very serious injury.

If you need medical help, please think carefully about the services you choose. Choosing the right place to receive advice and care will help us ensure that our Hospitals are not overwhelmed and enable us to provide timely treatment for patients most in need.

Please consider visiting your local pharmacy, your GP, visit https://111.wales.nhs.uk/selfassessments or call NHS 111 for advice. You can also ring 111 if you need to access urgent primary care when your own GP surgery is closed.

Our Minor Injury Units treat a range of injuries, such as:
• Limb injuries which include broken bones (fractures) and minor joint dislocations
• Wounds, grazes, & minor burns
• Head injuries provided there is no loss of consciousness or taking blood thinning drugs
• Face injuries provided there is no loss of consciousness
