'We must prioritise treatment for patients with life or limb-threatening conditions and injuries'
A senior clinician today issued an impassioned plea to the public over 'unprecedented conditions' at a hospital's accident and emergency department.
Dr Nasir, A&E Consultant and Clinical Director at the Emergency Department at the Royal Albert Edward, said: "We are appealing to our local community due to unprecedented conditions on the emergency department at the Royal Albert Edward Infirmary. We are asking that people only attend the A&E with life or limb threatening conditions and serious illness or injuries.
"We ask that members of the public help us by collecting friends and family from hospital as soon as they are ready to be discharged to free up the beds for those who need them the most." "We are also seeing ongoing challenges in discharging our patients who are well enough to leave hospital, which has a direct impact on the number of beds available for patients who are in desperate need of medical attention.
