I don't want a bigger Emergency Department.
I want a functioning social care system and a primary care service that can meet demand.
If we don't get that, the blockage in ED is going to get worse and more people are going to come to harm and die.

How has looking after patients in corridors become acceptable to NHSE?
We are on the Metro front page and in other media channels today because we have made it clear that the NHS temporary escalation spaces (TES) guide is "normalisation of what is an unacceptable and dangerous situation".
