“Shropshire has some of the longest ambulance and A&E waiting times in the country so I’m glad the Health Secretary has agreed to meet with me and other local MPs to discuss how this situation can be improved' - Helen Morgan.
Mrs Morgan, the Lib Dem MP for North Shropshire, highlighted the huge ambulance waiting times and intense pressure on Shropshire A&Es in an exchange with Secretary of State Steve Barclay in the House of Commons on Monday.
It comes after Shropshire was given the lowest amount from the Government’s emergency winter discharge fund despite having some of the worst bed-blocking rates in the country. Meanwhile, in December, 8,000 ambulance hours were lost due to paramedics having to wait to hand over patients to the emergency departments in Shrewsbury and Telford.
Mrs Morgan said: “Shropshire has some of the longest ambulance and A&E waiting times in the country so I’m glad the Health Secretary has agreed to meet with me and other local MPs to discuss how this situation can be improved.
