  • © Licensed to London News Pictures; 24/09/2020; M4, near Grittleton, Wiltshire, UK. A private ambulance arrives on the scene as emergency Services attend a second fatal accident on the M4, this time on the westbound carriageway involving two lorries, a car and a van. Two people died in the two separate crashes on the M4 overnight. The first happened at about 01:35 BST when a car overturned between Bath and Chippenham, killing one man and leaving another with life-threatening injuries. Two lorries, a car and a van then crashed in the same area between junctions 17 and 18. One man died and two others were injured. Emergency services say two serious accidents on the M4 have caused the motorway to be shut and it may remain shut all morning, and have been long delays on diversion routes. A third accident has been reported westbound before junction 17. Photo credit: Simon Chapman/LNP.

  • © Licensed to London News Pictures.  04/07/2017; Weston-super-Mare, North Somerset, UK. GRAHAME PAINE (at right), chairman of the Weston Area Health NHS Trust addresses a public board meeting at Weston General Hospital. A protest was held against the overnight closure of Weston General Hospital Accident and Emergency department is held before the Weston Area Health NHS Trust  Board meeting at Weston General Hospital which is to agree the temporary overnight closure of the Accident & Emergency department because of staffing levels, with no projected date given for a return to 24hr service. It was announced last month the A&E unit would be closing between 10pm and 8am from Tuesday 04 July, after a Care Quality Commission inspection raised concerns over the long-term sustainability of staffing levels. The decision has been made on patient safety grounds because the trust cannot provide enough specialist hospital doctors to safely staff the A&E department overnight. Patients arriving by ambulance will instead be taken to either the BRI or Southmead in Bristol, or Taunton’s Musgrove Park hospitals, and anyone who would otherwise turn up to the A&E department themselves is being urged to either try to get to Bristol or ring the NHS helpline on 111. Unison, the trade union representing health workers, said it was vital the NHS bosses running Weston’s hospital had a plan in place to reinstate the 24 hour service as soon as possible, so the temporary closure didn’t become permanent. Unison says the closure comes from a staffing shortage that is the direct result of the government running down the NHS, and that on the week of the NHS' 69th birthday, they value this national treasure and the staff who keep it going more than ever. A hospital spokesman said they had no choice to close the unit after the CQC report rated the A&E department ‘inadequate’, and that A&E has been fragile for several years as a result of ongoing challenges around medical recruitment and a n

Unison, the trade union representing health workers, said it was vital the NHS bosses running Weston’s hospital had a plan in place to reinstate the 24 hour service as soon as possible, so the temporary closure didn’t become permanent. Unison says the closure comes from a staffing shortage that is the direct result of the government running down the NHS, and that on the week of the NHS' 69th birthday, they value this national treasure and the staff who keep it going more than ever. A hospital spokesman said they had no choice to close the unit after the CQC report rated the A&E department ‘inadequate’, and that A&E has been fragile for several years as a result of ongoing challenges around medical recruitment and a national shortage of A&E doctors which has made this position worse.

A protest against the overnight closure of Weston General Hospital Accident and Emergency department is held before the Weston Area Health NHS Trust  Board meeting at Weston General Hospital which is to agree the temporary overnight closure of the Accident & Emergency department because of staffing levels, with no projected date given for a return to 24hr service. It was announced last month the A&E unit would be closing between 10pm and 8am from Tuesday 04 July, after a Care Quality Commission inspection raised concerns over the long-term sustainability of staffing levels. The decision has been made on patient safety grounds because the trust cannot provide enough specialist hospital doctors to safely staff the A&E department overnight. Patients arriving by ambulance will instead be taken to either the BRI or Southmead in Bristol, or Taunton’s Musgrove Park hospitals, and anyone who would otherwise turn up to the A&E department themselves is being urged to either try to get to Bristol or ring the NHS helpline on 111.
