The strike action will take place over 72 hours from Monday 13 March.
The British Medical Association (BMA) and Hospital Consultants and Specialists Association (HCSA) have confirmed that their members will be taking part in Industrial Action at the Trust from 7 am on Monday 13 March until 7 am on Thursday 16 March in the form a strike.
NUH said:
‘Throughout any Industrial Action, patient safety remains our key focus and teams are working hard to ensure that we prioritise those patients who require emergency treatment.
‘Due to the expected reduction in staff across our hospitals, appointments will be affected. We will contact you if your appointment or procedure needs to be changed or rescheduled due to the strike action. If we have not contacted you, please attend as planned.
‘Our emergency services remain open and you should continue to come forward as normal in emergency and life-threatening cases – when someone is seriously ill or injured, or their life is at risk.
‘Where the situation is not life-threatening, alternative support will be available through NHS111 online or by calling 111.’
