What the petition asks
I’m worried that mortality rates are increasing in the busiest holiday resort in the UK, where people who need emergency care are not getting to a hospital on time. In fact the nearest is a 40 min drive away (Boston), which is assessed as inadequate by CQC.
I believe problems have been exacerbated by failings on a number of occasions by East Midlands ambulance service. We need to prevent future deaths. My late wife and unborn child was one of these statistics.
