No you can't. There is categorically NO EMERGENCY SERVICE at Burnley. Emergencies are handled at Blackburn only. Even with a broken limb you might get treatment at Burnley but then have to go for your follow-up at Blackburn!

This is indeed a big problem and we are aware of it.
I think perhaps you have not read the dossier assembled by your local politicians?
I wish I could post the URL to it for you to read, but unfortunately I don't have the permissions from the web site administrator! However if you search Google for
its our nhs dossier
you should find it easy enough.

The facts are in the dossier. My proposal is to rip up the new GP and consultant contract and quit wasting our money on PFI. The NHS also needs breaking up into locally managed units that are properly and directly accountable to the public.
