Latest data shows that over two million people were seen in accident and emergency (A&E) in December 2017 and despite increasing demand, nearly nine out of 10 people are assessed and then admitted, transferred or discharged within four hours. The National Health Service is now seeing over 1,800 more patients within four hours every single day compared to 2009/10.<\/p>

The Government has given the NHS an additional £1.6 billion to support and improve performance.
