Changes to our Services from Monday 14th December 2020...

From Monday 14th December we will be making changes to some of our services. This decision has not been made lightly, however, the increasing transmission of COVID-19 within our communities, together with the usual winter demand on our emergency care is having a significant impact on our ability to provide normal services.

We will be making the following changes to our services:

• All non-urgent outpatient clinics will be postponed – cancer services and clinically urgent patients will continue to be seen.
• All non-urgent planned surgery will be postponed - cancer surgery and surgery for clinically urgent conditions will continue.
• We will be working to ensure the rapid and risk assessed discharge of all medically fit patients who no longer need hospital care.
• Radiology (x-ray) and endoscopy services will continue unchanged and diagnostic and treatment services for heart conditions will not be postponed. Our COVID-19 vaccination programme will also be prioritised.
• Our child and adult mental health services will not be affected by these changes.

We continue to encourage you to #ChooseWell and in the first instance please visit:

• NHS 111 Wales - Check Your Symptoms https://111.wales.nhs.uk/SelfAssessments/
• Contact NHS 111 or contact your GP or Community Pharmacist.

If you have life threatening symptoms please call 999.

Thank you for your continuing support and understanding.
