Email to Councillors setting out why BHRUT is using misleading 4 hour A&E statistics

I wrote to the below to Councillors yesterday, as yet no reply from BHRUT, I will put up anything they send. Dear Councillors I present a petition on Thursday about the need to extend King George rather than allow housing on the site, I write today about what I minded to say on Thursday about governance issues at BHRUT and why the plan to review the KGH A&E closure appears a sham. The BBC A&E tracker today shows BHRUT 112 out of 133 trusts for A&E performance at May 2018 (1) The review needs to be published by this September 2018 to lobby central government for more beds, doctors and nurses at King George & Queens. I will seek the petition be referred to Health Scrutiny per an earlier petition of mine which led to a working party chaired by Wes Streeting (2).

letters for local press urging NHS to stop plan to allow building on King George

I am encouraging local Councillors and activists to sign a letter to go to Recorder and Wanstead and Woodford Guardian for publication this week to ask the NHS to withdraw their plan to allow housing on "surplus" land on the King George site. The letters are as follows For the Recorder: Dear Sir or Madam The 2010 NHS plan for closing King George A&E has a number of stages until the final closure. Some of these stages have already taken place at King George, such as closing some beds designed for emergency admissions and replacing them with rehabilitation beds. Another part of the 2010 plan at page 113 refers to "The delivery of the savings forecast will require a rationalisation of the King George Hospital site to make sure that the space vacated by the acute unit is either used productively for an alternative used... estate rationalisation plan would need to be developed bringing together... parts of the King George Hospital site and buildings that can ...
