Due to the extreme weather conditions today (Friday 29 October), and subsequent safety and power issues, a number of our services have been impacted.
We want to reassure our community that your loved ones in our care are safe. There has been no disruption to the care of any patients staying at our hospitals. All our hospital sites are operating a normal inpatient service with minimal impact. We are remaining vigilant and will keep you updated if anything changes.
