«Breaking News» NHS crisis: 12,000 patients were left waiting in the back of ambulances outside A&E last week

Thousands of NHS patients were kept waiting in the backs of ambulances for half an hour or more last week, official figures have revealed. 


Hospitals across England are buckling under the strain of winter, as data shows the the first week of January was the worst so far this season. 


The number of patients waiting at least 30 minutes to be handed over into A&E from ambulances was 26 per cent higher than in the previous week. 


Nearly 3,000 patients were forced to wait an hour or more to be taken into busy casualty units, with more than 9,000 waiting between 30 to 60 minutes. 


Health chiefs have today warned that, although hospitals are so far coping better than last year with the winter rush, the worst is yet to come.




NHS figures for last week revealed the first six days of January was the worst so far this winter for A&E departments across England, which are keeping thousands of people waiting for hours

Today's NHS figures show ambulance crews across England are getting bogged down as they enter their 'busiest time of the year'.


A total of 12,285 people taken to hospital by ambulance had to wait 30 minutes or more before being taken inside between December 30 and January 6.


Some 2,986 of those waited for at least an hour – 1,156 more people than were in the same situation last week.

And once in A&E and seen by a doctor, thousands of seriously ill patients are still facing long waits to make it onto a ward.


Monthly data showed 59,803 people waited on trolleys for four hours or more to be admitted into hospital after doctors decided to keep them in in December.



CANCER WAITING TIME TARGET MISSED FOR 35 MONTHS 



The NHS's target of diagnosing and treating 85 per cent of cancer patients within 62 days of their GP referral has not been met for the 35th month in a row.


The target was only met for 79 per cent of patients in England in November, meaning one in five had to wait more than two months after being told they may have cancer. 


The 62-day target has now been breached for 35 months in a row.


Since it was first breached in January 2014, more than 125,000 people have waited more than two months to begin potentially life-saving therapy.


More than three in five NHS hospital trusts in England (62 per cent) missed the target in November 2018. 


Dr Fran Woodard, an executive director at Macmillan Cancer Support said: 'Behind these figures are people waiting anxiously for a diagnosis and treatment.


'If the NHS is to deliver on its ambitious aim of earlier diagnosis and person-centred care for everyone living with cancer, we need a fully costed plan for the workforce to build on the measures in NHS England’s long-term plan.'




Some 280 people waited in corridors for at least 12 hours before being taken to an inpatient bed.


This week's statistics reveal the worst week for the NHS so far this winter, and come as 4.15million people are waiting for non-emergency treatment. 


This includes many cancer patients – separate figures from today revealed the health service has breached its cancer waiting time target for the 35th month in a row. 


Although still affecting thousands of unwell people in England every day, ambulance and A&E waiting times have improved since the same time last year.    


But flu, norovirus and colder weather could still throw a spanner in the works of crisis management, experts say. 


Dr Becks Fisher, a GP and spokesperson for the Health Foundation said: 'Today’s data shows a busy NHS in England, but one that is coping under pressure so far. 


'However, the NHS is not out of the woods yet. It continues to miss a number of key targets – including for cancer and routine consultant appointments. 


'We’re still in the early days of winter, and pressures are likely to increase further if cold weather or viral illnesses hit in earnest. 


'If these pressures were to hit, this would make it harder for the service to improve performance and start implementing the Long Term plan from April.'


Other figures for last week showed 17 ambulances were turned away from busy A&E departments, and 93.2 per cent of all hospital beds in England were full.





























































HOW HAS THE NHS IN ENGLAND PERFORMED SO FAR THIS WINTER? 
WEEKA&E DIVERSIONSNATIONAL BED %HOSPITALS 100% FULL ON AT LEAST ONE NIGHTHOSPITALS COMPLETELY FULL ALL WEEKAMBULANCE WAITS 30-60 MINSAMBULANCE WAITS 60+ MINS
Dec 3-92594.21428,7361,939
Dec 10-163093.4907,8661,491
Dec 17-231591.21507,9331,744
Dec 24-291787.51607,8871,830
Dec 30-61793.21519,2992,986


This remains higher than the NHS's safe operating target of 85 per cent, which was almost hit during the week over Christmas (87.5 per cent).


One hospital – Croydon Health Services in south London – was 100 per cent full for the entirety of week, while 15 were completely full on at least one night.


NHS officials have themselves admitted the service must be prepared for worse to come.


Last week the deputy chief executive of the NHS Confederation, Danny Mortimer said: 'The NHS has delivered significant improvements on last year’s performance and that’s welcome news for patients and the public. 


'But the NHS is not yet in the clear as the toughest days often come later in the winter when severe cold weather, flu and norovirus can strike.' 


An NHS spokesperson said today: 'Thanks to the hard work of NHS staff, monthly figures published this morning show the health service performed better for A&E services this December than last December, despite successfully caring for 3.9 per cent more people within the current 4 hour target.


'We are now in what can be the most pressured time of year, flu, other winter bugs and adverse weather conditions can all increase, so the situation is being closely monitored.'


Of the 4.13million patients waiting to receive treatment at the end of November, 12.7 per cent of them had been waiting for 18 weeks or more.


This falls short of the target to treat 92 per cent of patients within four-and-a-half months.


Labour's Shadow Health Secretary, Jonathan Ashworth said: 'More than half a million people waiting longer than 18 weeks for treatment is a shocking indictment of nine years of Tory cuts, failure to recruit staff and a botched NHS reorganisation. 


'Patients are waiting longer in pain and distress, with a real risk that their health could deteriorate further.


'These staggeringly bad performance figures show how shamefully irresponsible it is of Theresa May to refuse to restore NHS constitutional standards – standards that were met under a Labour government. Patients deserve better.'

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
