NHS staff are working to ensure critical services and appointments continue for patients, despite the global Microsoft issue having a disruptive impact.
Please attend appointments unless told otherwise. If you need immediate medical help use 111, or call 999 in an emergency.
You can also check website and social media channels for specific information from your local hospitals or GP practices.
Update from NHS England as of 10.43am, Friday 13 November:
An NHS Spokesperson said:”With the global Microsoft issue inevitably having a disruptive impact for staff, local NHS services are enacting long-standing measures to manage IT outages and ensure critical services and appointments can continue for patients today – including using other IT systems or paper records where possible.
“Patients should continue to use 999 in an emergency, and otherwise use 111, 111 online, or their local pharmacy, and come forward for appointments unless told otherwise.”
