The staff on the helpline offer advice and pre-test counselling and assist in making arrangements for testing. How long will patients wait to be tested?
Patients in the South Gwynedd area are being invited to attend especially arranged local clinics set up by the NHS. There have been 47 clinics set up in the morning, afternoon and evenings and at weekends. (Due to the volume of patients, GPs are not able to do blood tests in South Gwynedd.) Patients from other areas of North Wales, or elsewhere in Gwynedd are able to arrange their blood tests via their GP. However they are also able to attend one of the clinics if they wish to do so. The appointments are being co-ordinated through the special Help Line. It is anticipated that it will take a number of weeks to provide tests for all patients who wish to have them.
