Verbatim
“encouraging”
“Please reserve urgent and emergency care for situations that are truly critical. With fewer clinicians on duty, some patients may face extended waiting times, and we apologise for this. Thank you for your continued understanding and support.”
“We're not layering on things on top we're actually putting things in place which others have. Our population deserves what other people have in other parts of the country.”
“We all recognise where we are now is not acceptable, but we need to give our clinicians on the ground the tools to do the job”
“Industrial action is taking place at a time when flu and other respiratory viruses are circulating widely in our communities, which means our services are already under significant pressure.”
“Industrial action is taking place at a time when flu and other respiratory viruses are circulating widely in our communities, which means our services are already under significant pressure.”
“North Cumbria delivered more care through the strike, I would say than virtually any other acute trust that I've seen and we're very challenged.”
