Appointment System Update
In order to be effective, prevent risks and to continue our commitment to high-quality patient care, we are introducing a cap to the number of triage requests we can safely deal with each day. Triage will close each day once the cap is reached or at 10:00, whichever occurs first.
When fully staffed the cap will be Mon/Tue/Wed 100 triage requests, Thur 90 triage requests, and Fri 80 triage requests. You can assist with triage appointment availability by utilising the most appropriate NHS service - staff can signpost you to the most appropriate service based on your problem.
