Tonightโ€™s BBC Casualty highlighted how under resourced EDs are & how staff struggle to provide the best care for patients.

Crowding in A&Es is dangerous & caused by a lack of available hospital beds.

Urgent action is needed to address this crisis

Sometimes Iโ€™m tempted to feel sorry for NHS/DHSC spokespeople. Doubtless talented comms experts asked to trot out meaningless wordage when light is shone on reality. But each time they do it the sense of disconnect increases. apple.news/AbLDvlE04RpKl9โ€ฆ๐Ÿงต1/5
