Northern Care Alliance NHS Foundation Trust

Junior doctors and consultants will be taking industrial action in October.

The Northern Care Alliance will join the growing number of NHS Trusts and GP practices allowing patients to access their appointments and referrals electronically through the NHS App.

This month, Jon Nickson, programme director for the Greater Manchester Major Trauma Hospital (GMMTH), gives an exciting update on the scheme and reveals when you can expect to see it fully operational.

If you are attending with a minor ailment, you may be waiting longer than normal. NHS 111 can help you immediately, and a healthcare professional will call you back.
