Help us care for those most in need

Thank you for your support as we manage high-demand in our hospitals, together with essential maintenance work at the Princess of Wales Hospital.

We are asking for your help so our staff can continue to treat and care for those who need us most.

  • Rather than visiting your local ED, take a look at our website for directions to other nearby services which can help with most health issues - including the Minor Injuries Unit, GPs, pharmacies, and other specialists: https://ctmuhb.nhs.wales/patient-advice/local-nhs-health-services/
  • If you’re unsure what to do, use the NHS 111 Wales symptom checker for advice on where to go for non-urgent problems: https://111.wales.nhs.uk/?locale=en&term=A
  • If you or a loved-one experience disruption to services, please bear with us. Our staff are working extremely hard to ensure patients are safe and well cared for.
  • If a family member is due to be discharged from hospital, please do what you can to help them return home so they can continue with their recovery in the best possible place. Speak to the ward about how you can help.
  • If you have severe blood loss or have suffered a major trauma, ring 999 or visit an ED straight away.
