Grantham Hospital bosses are urging people not to go to A&E as the emergency department and other wards have come under unprecedented pressure over Christmas and the New Year.
In the four days up to Wednesday, 227 people went to A&E at Grantham, and wards are also full, putting the hospital and staff under strain.
The hospital says much of this pressure could be relieved because many of those people who are turning up at A&E could be treated elsewhere. Some people have been going to the A&E department hoping to be treated for coughs, colds and earache.
