Royal College of Physicians: Tackling corridor care

Overcrowding in hospitals is forcing healthcare professionals to provide care in corridors, waiting rooms, and other unsuitable spaces, compromising patient safety, dignity, and clinical effectiveness. A recent Royal College of Physicians (RCP) survey found that 78% of doctors had delivered care in temporary environments in the past month, with 90% reporting compromised patient privacy, 81% facing physical difficulties, and 75% lacking access to vital equipment.

Join the RCP, Royal College of Nursing (RCN), Royal College of Emergency Medicine (RCEM), and Healthwatch for a vital discussion on the impact of corridor care and how to address it. Experts will share real-world experiences, discuss the systemic causes of corridor care, and explore practical solutions to improve patient safety and hospital capacity.
 
This webinar will explore the findings of the survey, share real-world experiences from healthcare professionals, and discuss practical solutions to improve patient safety and hospital capacity. Attendees will have the opportunity to put their questions directly to senior royal college representatives, making this a key opportunity to contribute to the conversation on change.
