‘We ask for the support of our local communities to use alternative ways of contacting us such as the email addresses and mobile numbers shown on our website. We have also put alternative ways of contact in place for other health providers to use.

‘If you need to change or cancel an outpatient appointment, you can do so by visiting our website or calling the outpatients booking centre directly, which is located at a different site. We thank you for your patience.’

Engineers are on-site and the hospital is ‘working closely’ with external partners to find a solution.

If you need to change or cancel an outpatients appointment, you can do this online or by emailing: [email protected].
