Drop-In Chest X-Rays – New Arrangements

Published December 11, 2017 By

THE drop-in chest X-ray service is now no longer available at the One Life Centre in Middlesbrough.

The timings at the other existing venues have been extended to offer a seven-day drop-in service:

 

The James Cook University Hospital

Marton Road, Middlesbrough, TS4 3BW

Monday to Friday

9am – 5pm

 

Redcar Primary Care Hospital

West Dyke Road, Redcar, TS10 4NW

Saturday and Sunday

11am – 3pm

 

The service is available to smokers aged over 50 who are experiencing one or more of the following symptoms:

  • Lasting cough
  • Lasting chest pain
  • Coughing up blood

No appointment is needed – simply attend the X-ray department and those fitting the criteria will be seen.

Anyone who is experiencing any of these symptoms but is outside the eligibility criteria for the drop-in service is advised to make an appointment to see their GP.

  • If you are interested in ideas, radio is way more pure than television. You’re not distracted by somebody’s nose or hair or posture. You can really see how someone thinks and penetrate to the essence of who that person is. – Terry Gross
