Accident & Emergency (A&E) departments are for life-threatening emergencies, such as severe chest pain, major injury, or heavy blood loss.

They are under high pressure, so patients are urged to use alternatives like NHS 111 - www.111.nhs.uk/, pharmacies ~ www.nhs.uk/service-search/pharmacy/find-a-pharmacy/results/Goole?latitude=53.703817319654775&longitude=-0.8713038301469084, or urgent care centers for non-serious issues to ensure care for those who need it most.

Stay safe, this Easter!
