NHS has fewer beds per head than Romania, doctors warn Britain has half as many hospital beds for its population as Romania, leading doctors have said, amid warnings that NHS trusts are “bulging at the seams".
Consultants said bed shortages meant they could only do only a third of the operations they were able to carry out in the 1960s.
Doctors at British Medical Association (BMA)’s annual meeting said patients were being harmed by cuts which have left Britain with far fewer beds than almost every country in Europe.
They called for an “urgent re-evaluation” of bed numbers, amid fears that plans to tackle a spiralling deficit could endanger patients further. The Daily Telegraph
