Derbyshire Health and Care System remains under significant pressure and continues to declare a critical incident

 

The Derbyshire health and care system saw new levels of demand for services during the Christmas bank holiday period and this has continued with pressure on services rising as we moved towards the New Year bank holiday weekend.  As a result of this, a critical incident was declared to help prioritise and maintain safe services for patients and this decision was taken at 14.32 hours on 31st December 2022. A critical incident continues to be declared as of 17:00 hours on Tuesday 3 January 2023.

More information and how people can help is on the Joined Up Care Derbyshire website.

When We Are Closed

If you require urgent medical attention when the surgery is closed please dial 111 free of charge. Alternatively if the NHS 111 service is not available in your area please dial 08444 122 239.

Out-of-hours services are generally busy so please think carefully before asking to see a doctor and only do so if you genuinely cannot wait until the surgery re-opens.

In a genuine emergency you should call 999. Chest pains and / or shortness of breath constitute an emergency.
