The NHS, often hailed as the pride of Britain, provides health services that everyone living in the UK can use without being asked to pay the full cost of the service. "Emergency medicine in the NHS is facing one of its most challenging times in our history," Dr Ian Higginson, vice-president at the Royal College of Emergency Medicine, said. "We are having to treat patients in corridors, which is unsafe and undignified for those who need care." There have been reports of patients waiting 24 hours to get a hospital bed, and of families forced to drive the unwell and elderly to the hospital in a state of emergency because no ambulance arrived. "We're unable to offload the ambulances who are bringing more patients to us, so they're queuing in our car parks. Then we can't get the ambulances out to patients who need them because they're stuck in our car parks,” Dr Higginson said.
