NORTH Cumbria Integrated Care (NCIC) said there could be 'lengthy' delays in the treatment of those attending with conditions that are not life-threatening.
A spokesperson for the trust said: "If your condition is not life-threatening and you come to our A&E departments, you may face a lengthy wait as we prioritise the people who need us the most."
NCIC also reminded people they can contact NHS 111 or visit pharmacists for advice on non-emergency conditions.
