Access to urgent and emergency care

max
MariaPCC 27 October 2023

This report warns of wide regional variations in the quality of patients’ access to urgent and emergency care. It finds that ambulance services covering large rural areas, for example services in the south-west and east of England, were particularly challenged and disproportionately affected by problems stemming from the flow of patients elsewhere in the system. The report further warns that not enough is being done to tackle delayed discharges, with beds unable to be released for new patients.
