JUNIOR doctors will strike over national changes to proposed contracts.
The British Medical Association - the doctors’ trade union - blamed the walkouts on the ‘government’s failure to address doctors leaders’ concerns with robust contractual safeguards on safe working, and proper recognition for those working unsocial hours’.
The junior doctors will provide only emergency cover for 24 hours from 8am on Tuesday, and 48 hour emergency cover from 8am on January 26.
An all-out strike will then be held between 8am and 5pm on February 10.
Plans have been put in place by the hospital to ensure there is as little disruption to services as possible during these times.
