Centres of excellence

Six centres. One
escalation pathway.

Every centre shares the same imaging, the same ITU and the same on-call rota — so escalation is a phone call inside one building, not a transfer across a city.

Emergency

If you think it is
a heart attack
or a stroke —

Call 999. Do not drive yourself.

An ambulance crew starts treatment at your door and pre-alerts our team, which means the cath lab is ready before you arrive. Driving in yourself loses that.

Chest pain that lasts more than 15 minutes, spreads to the arm, jaw or back, or comes with sweating and nausea, is a 999 call — even if it eases off.
