Although this is the first time Healthcare Support Workers have chosen to take industrial action at University Hospitals Plymouth NHS Trust we have tried and tested plans in place to deal with any disruptions such as industrial action.
The safety of our patients and wellbeing of our staff remains our priority and we will continue to ensure our focus on these areas.
We will contact patients if their procedure or outpatient appointment is cancelled, but they should attend a procedure or appointment if they have not heard from us.
