This initiative is only as good as the people who volunteer to take part. Everybody benefited from your generosity and time. Inspired by a very special girl called Kerri. We are already planning for 2025!

We have made it clear that the NHS temporary escalation spaces (TES) guide is "normalisation of what is an unacceptable and dangerous situation". RCEM Position Statement: tinyurl.com/rcemTES RCEM News: tinyurl.com/rcemNews1612 TES guide: england.nhs.uk/long-read/pri… Independent's coverage (in quote repost): independent.co.uk/news/healt…
Called out NHSE’s narrative that it’s possible to provide safe care in corridors. Used strong language putting our statement together, reflecting @RCollEM members’ and colleagues’ strength of feeling on this matter. Degree to which corridor care is normalised is dumbfounding
