The NHS in Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and Berkshire West is preparing for the impact of further industrial action by junior doctors and consultant doctors.
The BMA has announced a further four-day junior doctors' strike from 7am on Friday 11 August to 7am on Tuesday 15 August, and a 48-hour consultants' strike from 7am on Thursday 24 August to 7am on Saturday 26 August.
The NHS is working to prioritise resources to protect emergency treatment, critical care, neonatal care, maternity, and trauma, and ensure priority for patients who have waited the longest for elective care and cancer surgery. The NHS will only reschedule appointments and procedures where necessary and will rebook immediately, where possible. Unfortunately, these strikes will affect planned and routine services.
Patients who have a scheduled appointment should attend as planned unless they hear from the NHS directly that the appointment has been changed.
