NHS is not fit for the 21st century hospital chief inspector warns The NHS is not fit for the 21st century, the new chief inspector of hospitals has said - warning all trusts to take urgent steps to make Accident & Emergency departments safe.
Prof Ted Baker said it was “not acceptable” to keep “piling patients into corridors” as he urged hospital leaders to act swiftly to guard the safety of those in their care.
In his first interview as chief inspector, he said too many hospitals had normalised “wholly unsatisfactory” arrangements which endangered patients, as well as denying basic privacy and dignity. The Daily Telegraph
