Posting on social media today (Tuesday) a spokesperson for the Trust said: “Both Emergency Departments at Antrim Area and Causeway Hospital are under extreme pressure ❗️

“Please do not attend unless your condition is urgent or life threatening.

Patients will be seen in order of clinical priority and non-urgent cases will experience longer waits.”
