Tameside and Glossop Integrated Care NHS FT has made necessary plans to maintain the safety, welfare and service of those in our care during the industrial action planned on 18 and 19 January 2023.
Unless advised otherwise, please continue to attend appointments and access services appropriately. You do not need to contact the Trust. For those whose appointments or care that may be impacted, you will be contacted directly by the service.
Our A&E department will remain open for genuine emergencies and life-threatening conditions.
If it is not an emergency, please consider other options such as visiting a pharmacist, contacting your GP or visiting www.111.nhs.uk.
