There will be further RCN strikes on Wednesday 18th and Thursday 19th January 2023. These strikes do not include members from Alder Hey and as such our services will be open and providing care as normal on these days.
Anyone who is due to attend for a procedure or outpatient appointment should attend as usual.
Our Emergency Department will be open as normal, but we are seeing record attendances and you may have a long wait.
If it is not an emergency, please consider other options such as checking our Symptom Checker, visiting a pharmacist, contacting your GP, or visiting www.111.nhs.uk.
If you need to visit a Walk In Centre, we encourage you to contact NHS 111 beforehand – find out more at https://www.merseycare.nhs.uk/our-services/liverpool/walk-centres.
