Emergency medicine consultant’s comments come as north London hospital posts specific ad for corridor care nurses
A senior doctor in emergency medicine has said “almost every hospital is treating patients in corridors and car parks” after a hospital posted adverts calling for nurses to take on 12-hour “corridor care” shifts.
Responding to “very significant pressure” in its A&E department, Whittington hospital in north London posted bank shifts available for A&E nurses which said “corridor care” in the notes.
