Winter pressures and emergency care: a view from A&E
Episode 80
Friday, 29 November, 2024

From corridor care to staff morale, winter is never an easy time for the NHS. But what is it like for staff working in urgent and emergency care during this time of year, and has it always been this way? Ruth Robertson is joined by Kelly Ameneshoa, Emergency Medicine Doctor, and Charlotte Wickens, Policy Advisor, to find out. They discuss how winter impacts patient care, what could make this winter different to others and what the first few months of a Labour Government might tell us about its approach moving forward.
