UHMBT de-escalates to OPEL Level 3

23 July 2024

Whilst our services remain under pressure, we have taken the decision to de-escalate back to OPEL Level 3. This decision was made because the pressure has reduced to a level which while still very significant, does not meet the OPEL 4 criteria. Whilst these de-escalations are positive news, it is important to note that our services do remain under extreme pressure.

We would like to thank the public for their patience and understanding while our clinical teams restore our services to operational capacity.
