The Welsh Ambulance service has issued an important warning to patients on Thursday, December 8.
All patients currently in a non life-threatening condition are being asked to make their own way to a hospital due to ambulance crews being overwhelmed with callouts.
Shortly before midnight Wales Ambulance Service tweeted: "We are exceptionally busy at the moment. If your emergency is not life-threatening you may be asked to make your own way to hospital. We must protect our precious resources for those that need it most."
