Non-emergency patients who attend A&E will be to other areas of the NHS to get their treatment. During the COVID-19 pandemic, NHS Scotland has been seriously affected by staff shortages. The waiting times in emergency services are at a record high, with 30% of patients waiting longer than 4 hours to get treatments for their condition. That is seriously concerning to patients who may require attention after Road Traffic Accidents, however, customers that decide to use our service will not have to worry about this, our medical agents can provide you with non-emergency examinations at the comfort of your own home, without having to sit for hours in the waiting room.
The latest Scottish guidance states that patients who do not have life-threatening conditions will be referred to GP’s and pharmacies, which will not always provide the adequate treatment or diagnosis that patients require. This new guidance demonstrates a script that doctors and nurses will have to follow to establish whether the condition is an emergency or not.
Dr Andrew Buist, chairman of the BMA’s Scottish GP committee, states: “This is about proper resourcing across the whole system. A&E is under massive pressure, so are GPs and this should not result in everyone being redirected from A&E to their GP practice.”
Since even before the pandemic, the waiting times in the NHS, like GP clinics and emergency services were unacceptable, with concerns due to the backlog, patients will not receive the service necessary. That can make it harder for patients that need to access medical records or attend medical treatments for their Personal Injury cases.
