Health chiefs are asking people across Forth Valley only to visits its Emergency Department this Easter if you end up with a life-threatening injury or illness.
They are worried that if people attend with a minor injury or something that could be seen by a GP, it could cripple the department which is already under severe pressure.
The Emergency Department at Forth Valley Royal Hospital in Larbert is there to treat patients with serious illnesses and injuries, like suspected heart attacks, strokes and breathing difficulties, who require emergency care.
