Suzanne Mason: Corridor medicine could help with ambulance handover delays

In our latest Health on the Line podcast, Matthew talks to Professor Sue Mason, University of Sheffield School of Health and Related research about the changes needed to Urgent and Emergency Care ahead of NHS England’s review, including returning to ‘corridor medicine’ in Emergency Departments to help with ambulance handover delays and that the resources that go in to NHS 111 does not reduce demand on emergency departments and the resources could be used in a much more effective way. Sue has written an NHS Confederation report to be published shortly setting out recommendations to improve Urgent and Emergency Care.
