Three trusts, running five A&E departments, have issued warnings
Patients in Greater Manchester are being warned to expect delays at A&E after three alerts were issued online. Three of the region's NHS trusts have described their emergency departments as either 'very' or 'extremely' busy this morning .
In Tameside, patients were warned of 'extremely busy' conditions yesterday afternoon, and an alert remains on the hospital's website today, warning that the emergency department is 'very busy'. Northern Care Alliance - which runs Salford Royal Hospital, the Royal Oldham Hospital and Fairfield General Hospital - has also issued an alert online for 'very busy' emergency departments.
Some doctors said the recent delays were 'no more busy than usual' - although this is already a situation considered unsafe by some. All three NHS trusts issuing warnings this morning are urging members of the public to think about whether A&E is the right place for treatment.
