Corridor Care Crisis Hits NHS
from Nottingham News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
Over 1,500 patients were treated in hospital corridors in Nottingham last month — a shocking sign of a nationwide crisis, with 90,000 people across England facing similar conditions in May. At Nottingham’s Queen’s Medical Centre, more than 50 patients a day are stuck in hallways, stripping away dignity and straining staff. Unions and patient advocates blame unsustainable funding and crumbling social care for this “perfect storm” hitting the NHS. Hospitals apologize, admitting corridors aren’t meant for care, and vow to fix patient flow — while the government aims to eliminate corridor care by 2029. These are the first official stats under that target, revealing a system under crushing pressure. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
