Ambulance service staff have confirmed they will strike on Friday, 17 February and Monday, 20 February.

The action on Friday, 17 February will only affect Patient Transfer Services (PTS) across the Cheshire and Merseyside region.

On Monday, 20 February our clinical cell will be operational between 00.01 and 23.59, for advice on managing our patients during this period of strike action affecting ambulance and PTS services.

The escalation flowchart and supporting information has been updated and is available on YourSpace to help guide and support you through the process. Our guidance around inpatient falls prevention is here.

As always, thank you for your continued support, professionalism, and commitment to patient care.
