Accident and Emergency

Over the winter months, the NHS sees more people visiting their GP, more people attending Accident & Emergency (A&E) and therefore, the highest increase in the number of people being admitted to hospital.

This leads to a need for people to be able to access services quickly and easily and ‘flow’ between services smoothly, without delays. 

UHNM is working with local NHS organisations to put in place plans which mean people will receive the care they need, when they need it, in the best place.

People also need to be supported to return home as soon as possible following a stay in hospital, with the correct care where it is needed. Find out more here about Home Care is Best Care
