NHS Nottingham warning as ambulance workers set to strike for second time

NHS Nottingham has warned that they will face 'significant pressures' on Wednesday (January 11) due to strike action. The GMB trade union at East Midlands Ambulance Service (EMAS) received enough votes to have a mandate to strike, with local NHS services facing increased demand.

Now, the public have been urged to "think carefully" about how they can help the NHS. Support is available for patients who are not suffering from life-threatening injuries through NHS111 online, your nearest pharmacy or at treatment centres.

Those in life-threatening situations should continue to come forward as normal. Nottingham and Nottinghamshire is one of a number of areas affected by industrial action this week.
