Advice to patients following NHS cyber attack

Northampton General Hospital has not been infected by the global cyber attack that has affected many NHS organsiations.

However, we have disabled our email system as a precautionary measure and staff have been working over the weekend to secure IT systems.

Patients with scheduled appointments should assume their treatment will take place as planned unless we contact you to let you know otherwise.

Our emergency department is under particular pressure and people should only attend when they need to.
