She is walking up to 16 miles a day
A leading Nottingham A&E nurse has laid bare the 'relentless' challenges currently facing the NHS, claiming it has been the worst she has seen in 32 years. Lou Davis, a sister in Queen's Medical Centre's emergency department, said the problems staff and patients are contending with are "far, far worse" than she has ever seen in her career.
Between 60 and 70 patients are in the ED at QMC waiting to be admitted to a ward. Delays are being caused as 200 fit-for-discharge patients wait to be discharged, with 300 patients with flu and Covid being treated on the wards. She said the work the department was doing was "almost like firefighting", adding: "At the minute the service is creaking at the seams and we are struggling. I will walk 30,000 steps in a shift. You don't stop, you don't go to the loo.
“We will always do our best to keep patients safe and we are working with our NHS and local authority partners to put in place measures to ensure that people who need hospital and emergency care can get treatment quickly and to identify and utilise any additional capacity to allow us to discharge patients and free up our beds.
Meanwhile, officials at Sherwood Forest Hospitals NHS Trust - which runs King's Mill, Newark and Mansfield Community Hospitals - have issued a fresh plea for the public’s help to support their loved ones to leave hospital as soon as they are ready.
