We understand how important your health is to you and that you may need to be supported whilst you wait for your appointment, operation or treatment.
UHCW NHS Trust is here for you and doing its best to get you the care you need as soon as possible.
But, while you are waiting for a hospital appointment, operation or treatment, we wanted to let you know of more support that is available to you.
The NHS recently launched the My Planned Care Patient Digital Platform which gives you direct access to the latest average wait time information, as well as helpful advice about how to manage pain, mental health, keeping healthy and accessing financial help and other local support whilst you wait.
It can also help you to prepare for your appointment/operation, including how to make a plan for your care and treatment alongside your healthcare professional.
We encourage you to look at this site where you may find the information you need before contacting us or your GP for an update about any elective procedures you are waiting for.
Updated weekly, the site is easy to use and can be viewed by anyone so your carer, friends, relatives and your NHS team can also access this information.

Please ensure you have a current blood test request form, if not please contact your hospital consultant or GP and they will post one to you. Unfortunately, your blood test will need to be rescheduled if you do not have a blood test request form when you come to a Blood Test clinic.
All blood tests are by appointment, please book an appointment using the Book Online button below.
If you have an appointment and cannot attend, please remember to cancel or reschedule your appointment so that someone else can use the time slot that you no longer need.
If you cannot book an appointment online, family and friends may be able to help – you can book appointments for more than one person from one account. Booking online is the quickest way to make an appointment.
If this is not possible, there is a telephone line for those who cannot book online. Please call 02476 153546 between 8am and 1pm Monday to Friday, excluding Bank Holidays.
