Hospitals Urge Public to Avoid Using Service Later this Month

Doncaster and Bassettlaw Teaching Hospitals have warned of reduced opening hours this August bank holiday.

Doctors and Nurses at Doncaster and Bassettlaw Teaching Hospitals have urged the public to use the health service wisely ahead of the August Bank holiday at the end of the month.

Many local practices and pharmacies will reduce their opening times and Health professionals at the Trust are asking that local people only attend if they need urgent care and treatment, and to seek alternatives if it is not an emergency.

The Trust are asking local people to collect any repeat prescriptions they need ahead of time, and to be prepared to self-care should you fall ill during this period.
