A&E attendances and emergency admissions, week ending 28th June

Today NHS England published the latest statistical information relating to A&E attendances and emergency admissions for the week ending 28th June 2015. This information is gathered from providers within NHS Trusts, NHS Foundation Trusts and Independent Sector Organisations.

The data includes:

  • total number of attendances in the week for all A & E types, including Minor Injury Units and Walk-in Centres, and of these, the number discharged, admitted or transferred within four hours of arrival
  • number of emergency admissions, and any waits over four hours and over 12 hours for admission following a decision to admit

Detailed information is available at: A&E Attendances and Emergency Admissions

Following the recommendations from Sir Bruce Keogh’s review of waiting time standards, statistics on A&E attendances and emergency admissions from July 2015 onwards will be published monthly rather than weekly, with the last weekly publication being for week ending 28 June 2015.

The publication dates for these monthly statistics can be found on our 12 month calendar here.

Further information on the review and next steps can be found under letters on our publications page.
