A statement from our Chief Nurse Arlene Wellman

"I want to assure everyone that our hospitals and community services are open for business and providing safe care. Whether you need urgent treatment in our A&E departments or have a planned appointment, please do not put off medical care.

"You can find more information on these pages or by calling us on 020 8296 2000. When visiting the hospital or attending an appointment we will provide a hospital-grade surgical mask and ask you to follow certain routes around the hospital.

"If you have symptoms of coronavirus you should self-isolate at home, and organise a test."
