A&E Waiting Time Figures in East London show Tories' "dismal record" on NHS
The Local Liberal Democrat Party for Newham, Barking and Dagenham today expressed serious concern over the Conservative Government's inability to provide the NHS with the support it needs in East London A&E's.
Only 83% of patients arriving at A&E in the East London Health & Care Partnership area (which includes Newham) were treated or admitted within four hours in October 2019, according to damning figures published on 14 November by NHS England. This is well below the official target of 95% of patients attending A&E being admitted, transferred or discharged within four hours.
