Thanks to the generosity and support of our donors, we have been able to give the Bereavement rooms at @BlackpoolHosp a much needed new look. These rooms are so important to families when they are going through one of the hardest times.🩡

We're making emergency care faster and more convenient so people don't end up in A&E where possible. As part of our Plan for Change, more people will be seen by urgent community response teams so they're not admitted to hospital unnecessarily. Teams like this NHS Falls Car πŸ‘‡

Please remember: If you no longer need an ambulance this bank holiday or have made your own way to the hospital, that’s OK, but please call us back on 999 to cancel. 111.nhs.uk is there when you need medical help quickly, but it's not an emergency. #999
