Patients deserve dignity - not a trolley in a hallway. Years of neglect has left A&Es stretched. To drive up standards, the Government must end corridor care for good. Proud to chair the @appgemergencycare.bsky.social - our corridor care report is out today. www.mirror.co.uk/news/politic...

Our President, Dr Ian Higginson, responds to the findings of the corridor care report published by the APPG on Emergency Care, complied by RCEM. Read his full response here: rcem.ac.uk/press-releas...

This report from RCEM, one of our coalition partners to end corridor care, should send shockwaves through govt. It shows that standards have fallen so far that many no longer expect to be treated in clinically appropriate spaces. We need data & transparency on how widespread corridor care is now.

The first report of the All-Party Parliamentary Group on Emergency Care has revealed the scale of corridor care in England, and the harrowing impact it has on patients. The report, built on research compiled by RCEM through data, surveys and patient testimony, is here: rcem.ac.uk/press-rel...

Last week, our parliamentary group was officially launched. Emergency care is facing extraordinary pressures - now is the time to push the Government to invest and resuscitate emergency care!

Last week, I was proud to launch the @appgemergencycare.bsky.social in Parliament. With over 16,600 lives lost last year due to long A&E waits, we must ensure emergency care is at the front of Government plans to improve our NHS. I am pleased to be working with @rcem.ac.uk to demand change.

Dr Ian Higginson has been appointed as the next President of RCEM. For now he is President Elect, and will officially take over from Dr Adrian Boyle after our AGM in the autumn. Huge Congratulations Higgi from all at the College! 🎉 Read the full news: rcem.ac.uk/rcem-announces-next-president/
