End corridor care for patients in Emergency Departments in England

Rejected 18 signatures

What the petition asks

It is estimated that 500 patients are dying a week because of failures in emergency care in English A&E departments.

Every day 1000s of patients are cared for in a corridor, with no dignity and with the staff unable to give them the care they deserve

People who have worked all their lives and paid their taxes deserve to get excellent and dignfied NHS care in their time of need. But we are failing them by not even having a cubicle space to see them in.

Rishi Sunak has made pledges to improve the NHS within 2 years.

A key pledge must be the elimination of any patient being cared for in a corridor in English NHS hospitals and A&E departments

Why it was rejected

It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do. Specifically, we're not sure what actions you'd like the Government to take to end patients being cared for in corridors.

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do, such as increasing funding for NHS Trusts that currently have to provide corridor care.
