A Wirral NHS Trust has declared an “internal critical incident” as it faces more patients “that we have experienced in any winter period.” Wirral University Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust said it was monitoring demand but 'non-urgent and cancer activity' is being cancelled as a result.
” A Wirral University Teaching Hospital spokesperson said: “Patient safety is the top priority of the Trust and we are consistently monitoring the level of demand across our hospital. There have been extremely high levels of people attending our Emergency Department over the last week who are in need of urgent care and therefore a range of measures have been implemented to ensure those patients are seen as early as possible.
