Nearly 80% of NHS doctors admit they routinely treat patients in corridors, toilets, and waiting rooms. Free healthcare is grand. Another leftist failed policy.
According to the Daily Mail, Health leaders warned last night that corridor care has become “the new normal” in the NHS.
New figures revealed that eight in ten doctors have had to offer treatment in ‘unsuitable’ public spaces in the past month.
The damning report from the Royal College of Physicians found patients were often stripped of their dignity and routinely had their safety compromised.
Three quarters of medics surveyed also admitted to struggling to access vital equipment or facilities when delivering care.
One, shockingly, said they “had more than one patient die directly as a result of not being in an appropriate clinical area — on a trolley in the corridor rather than in resus.”
The survey, carried out earlier this month, gathered the responses almost 1,000 physicians in specialties including cardiology, respiratory medicine and general internal medicine.
Some 78 per cent revealed they had provided care in a temporary environment in the past month.
Of the 889 respondents who gave further details on where this care was delivered, 45 per cent said it was in a corridor.

Nonsense! This is more propaganda from the corporate cesspool that wants to charge $1000.00 for a $50.00 med. They want you Saps in Chains paying $1800 a month for Corporate healthcare that CUTS YOU a thousand different ways for Profit!
I have relatives in “Canada and Italy” and nothing of the Sort Exists! They are Very Happy with their Universal Healtcare! And, You can get a Doctor, In Italy, ( Canada too) to do home visits if you`re unable to make it to the office. I have a Cousin in Italy who is a Doctor and does home visits for a living. Try finding that in America! IMPOSSIBLE!
And I get accused of not commenting on Articles by “Staff.” You know, people, if you`re that afraid of me, it is a Badge of Honor.. However, you should really think about the BABY BANS … “Those who Ban Others will Be Banned themsleves.” I told alex Jones this; before He ran into lots of trouble. There is a universal law about such things called Karma.
This story is from England.
Yes, I know.
However, it is an attack piece on all NHS systems. No French German, Italian or Canadian Citizen would ever DARE part with their Universal; because they all like it very much and appreciate the Freedom it gives them not being bound to a Corporate Employer.. Ask a Vet if they want to dump their VA healthcare for Corporate Slave Care?
Britain has been fighting Privitization. So, I would suspect this is causing trouble. Funds being Cut. They tried ( in Britain/France) to Corporatize Healthcare and Educational Benefits and Millions of People went to the Streets. They know a Good thing and they`re never going to allow it to be Privitized for Profit. They do not want to end up like Americans paying $1500 mo, then getting dropped if they get sick.
Wonder if all their immigrants are overtaxing the Brits system?
