Our Emergency Departments are extremely busy at the moment. Please consider alternative options, where appropriate.
Pallav, Emergency Department Consultant at Hinchingbrooke, said: “We are working hard to safely assess and treat a large number of very unwell patients. Please only attend the Emergency Department if you require urgent or life-saving care.
“If you need urgent medical help but are unsure where to go, please contact NHS 111. You can call, go online, or use the NHS App to be assessed and directed to the most appropriate service.
“Please be kind and patient with our staff, who are doing everything they can to see patients as quickly and safely as possible. Thank you.”
