What the petition asks
Millions of pounds have been spent on Nightingale Hospitals throughout the country, yet they remain empty, whilst beds in our general hospitals are being taken up with Covid patients! Jobs have been lost from the "Change of Use" and general patients are getting overlooked. Get these hospitals open!!
Why it was rejected
It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.
We can't accept your petition because the UK Government and Parliament aren't responsible for the issue you raise. Decisions on how to use the Nightingale hospitals as part of local areas' response to the Covid-19 pandemic is an operational matter for the NHS, not the UK Government or Parliament.
