We currently have exceptional demand on our services and staff. Help us by following these steps:
– Use NHS services wisely. Only visit A&E in an emergency; the NHS is extremely busy so if you end up visiting an emergency department with a less serious illness or injury, it’s likely you’ll wait a long time to be seen as we treat those with urgent and life-threatening health issues. Get advice for treating certain illnesses and injuries at home via NHS 111 Wales. For common ailments or medication out of hours, visit a pharmacy.
– Follow the advice and reduce the spread of illness. Take steps such as washing your hands or using hand sanitiser and avoid visiting a hospital, unless absolutely necessary, if you think you have a virus or have recently spent time with someone who has a virus. They may seem like small things, but they make a big difference.
– Get vaccinated. If you’re eligible for vaccinations against Flu or COVID don’t miss out. We’re currently working through our Spring COVID-19 vaccine programme: https://ctmuhb.nhs.wales/patie…/immunisation-and-vaccines/
