North Cumbria Integrated Care Trust have issued an appeal for health care assistants or registered nurses to cover additional shifts this evening, and tomorrow due to a internal incident.
A spokesperson from the Trust said:
"Due to an increase in emergency attendances and admissions coupled with delays in discharges for our medically fit patients, we are currently managing an internal incident in the interests of patient safety.
"In order to help relieve the pressure we we are asking any off duty health care assistants or registered nurses who are able to undertake additional shifts this evening or tomorrow to contact the site co-ordinator at CIC."
