Struggling Northampton A&E's new unit nears completion Hospital beds and equipment have begun to arrive at a struggling emergency department's new assessment centre.
It is hoped the 60-bed unit at Northampton General will help staff to work out the appropriate treatment for each patient and reduce waiting times.
A hospital manager blamed "dangerous overcrowding" in A&E for the death of an 85-year-old man in March.
The Nye Bevan building, named after the health minister who set up the NHS in 1948, is on track to open in October. BBC Northampton
