Welsh NHS Confederation warns stoppage coincides with one of ‘most pressurised weeks of the year’
Junior doctors across Wales are starting a three-day strike over pay as the Welsh government and hospital leaders warned of the pressures that health services are under.
During the stoppage, which is due to begin at 7am on Monday and last until 7am on Thursday, more than 3,000 doctors could take industrial action. The Welsh NHS Confederation, which represents health boards in Wales, said the strike would coincide with one of the “most pressurised weeks of the year, following recent weeks of significant winter pressures”.
