On the anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic, we thought we'd answer a question that's often asked,

"If they raised the Mary Rose, why not raise the Titanic?"

Allow our scaled diagram to explain...

The latest update we had from tissue viability (sometime last year) was clean and dress, no more steristrips, with community follow up.
It was a surprise

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.

#ICYMI New guidance fails to address how β€˜national shame’ of corridor care and excessive A&E waits will be tackled.

RCEM responds to the government’s β€˜mandate for the NHS’ and NHSE planning guidance.

I agree, the concern is that this will be the first of many similar stories

Is that more or less than previously (I honestly have no idea)?
But nationally there have been drops between 25-40%, reducing numbers on those courses could be seen as making β€œsense” (I don’t agree)
