What this means for you
AI-generated plain English summary
✓
Doctors will stop work starting April 7th**, which means some hospital and clinic appointments may be cancelled or delayed, so you should expect longer wait times for care during this period.
✓
Check with your hospital or doctor's office now** to find out if your appointment is affected, and ask them what you should do—they can tell you if you need to reschedule or if your visit will still happen.
✓
Keep taking your regular medicines** and if you have a serious health emergency, the hospital will still treat you—strikes don't stop emergency care, but non-urgent services will be disrupted.
Always speak to your doctor before making any changes to your health or treatment.
