NHS workers are staging a four-hour strike today in a row with the Government over pay.
Midwives, nurses, radiographers, paramedics and psychiatric staff will walk out in protest at the Government's refusal to accept a recommended 1% wage rise for all NHS employees.
NHS England said "robust plans" were in place to protect patients during the strike.
The Department of Health have dismissed union claims that the majority of NHS workers will miss out on a 1% pay increase.
Unions claim the Government rejected a 1% pay rise recommended by the independent NHS Pay Review Body for all NHS workers. They say the decision means 60% will now not even receive a 1% increase.
Dismissing the claims, the DoH said:
The department added that Health Secretary Jeremy Hunt met with trade unions last week.
