Stockport NHS Trust sets out guidance ahead of resident doctors' strike action

Stockport NHS Trust is urging patients to seek care in the best way possible amid upcoming strike action from resident doctors, starting at 7am on 17 December until 7am on 22 December, related to pay disputes. The Trust has assured the public that emergency services will stay operational, focusing on critical care like A&E, maternity, and ICUs.
