Blackpool Victoria Hospital is warning that patients could face delays
As junior doctors are set to walk out in a four day strike after Easter, .
It will come after the Easter bank holiday in which some services are closed and lots of staff are on annual leave because of the school holidays. The days just before and after any bank holiday weekends are usually challenging for the NHS so a significant disruption to services is expected.
“We know there will be some disruption to our services and appointments but people in greatest need will continue to have access to the care they require. Urgent and emergency care services will of course remain open during the bank holiday and industrial action period and people should call 999 or attend accident and emergency if it is life-threatening or an emergency.
