Yes and more to come with waves of refugees from the most recent Middle Eastern war.

i spent 26 hours on the A&E corridor. The only access to toilets was through a locked door to another part of A&E. The door needed to be opened with a staff fob key, which the nurse (?) looking after the corridor didn’t possess because they came from an agency. Patients had to wait for permanent staff to wander through and ask to be let through to the toilet. Water was provided, but no food.

Spent 8 hours in a e with rapid vision loss.
Only to be told theres nothing wrong and the scans show nothing… and they didnt know what was going on
Asked to be referred to a different hospital for a second opinion, this talk happened in the corridor…
Got to second hospital… a month later (had to phone them to ask for a sooner appointment as the one they gave was 3 months away) only to be told oh you have severe optic nerve swelling in both eyes… and that the scans from hospital 1 SHOWED IT
My right eyes vision has been permanently damaged frim the delay in treatment not just from a and e but the GP that refused to give me an appointment even after being told by my optician to get me in asap I also have keratoconus in my left eye which killed that eye off so im waiting for contacts to sort that one out

Thankfully there’s a huge infrastructure development project scheduled

which will include £24 billion for healthcare infrastructure and £5 billion to create additional NHS capacity for diagnostics and procedures, and in emergency departments, which will help meet the target of 92% of patients waiting no longer than 18 weeks from referral to treatment.
