Help the NHS manage pressure on A&E services
It has long been acknowledged that the majority of people who turn up at A&E do not need to be seen or treated in an emergency department. Barts Health NHS Trust are encouraging patients to #RethinkA&E and consider going to a GP or pharmacy instead.
See here for more information on how Barts Health are managing the numbers of A&E patients at Whipps Cross, as well as the Royal London and Newham Hospitals.
