Nottinghamshire hospitals have postponed some routine appointments that were scheduled for the day of the Queen's funeral. Hospitals in the city and wider county join NHS trusts across the country in rescheduling non-urgent patients on Monday, September 19.
It comes after the announcement that the nation would be given a bank holiday to observe the long-reigning monarch being put to rest. All emergency care, urgent elective and cancer care will, however, be taking place as usual, Nottinghamshire's Integrated Care Board (ICB) announced.
Patients who were supposed to have an appointment with either Nottingham University Hospitals (NUH), which runs Queen's Medical Centre and City Hospital, and Sherwood Forest Hospitals (SFH) will be contacted if they have had their appointment cancelled.
