Cheltenham General Hospital's A&E department will stay open after a four-day resident doctor strike was suspended following a government pay offer. The planned Sunday 8 p.m. closure and Monday reopening as a minor injuries unit were scrapped, with the hospital saying it is too late to reinstate Monday appointments but will reorganize services from Tuesday to Thursday. The BMA said doctors will vote in a referendum on the offer. Health Secretary James Murray called the offer a chance to resolve the disputes, while the trust apologized for unavoidable disruption. Patients with planned care were advised to monitor updates.
