A Leicestershire paramedic describes the current situation at hospitals as 'horrendous'
The paramedic, who has asked to remain anonymous, often works 14-hour shifts with no break, he saysA paramedic says he and his colleagues have become "demoralised" by the "horrendous" situation staff and patients have experienced this winter.There had been occasions where there were no ambulances to attend cardiac arrest calls due to a shortage of resources, he said.
"The situation is horrendous," he said. "We are facing long waits outside the hospital and when the patient finally gets in, [they go] into a small pod that's not even within the hospital building itself. It's not really fit for purpose. The paramedic added: "Ambulance staff are very demoralised and usually working 13 or 14 hour shifts with no break.
He told BBC Radio Leicester: "I first got involved with the NHS in my mid-20s. I'm in my mid-70s now, but I've never seen a winter like this - the whole system has ground to a halt.
