A third of ambulance workers have personally witnessed patient deaths linked to delays, according to a new survey. "A decade of savage cuts, an explosion in demand and ambulance workers leaving in droves has left the service on the edge of disaster," says one union.
One third of ambulance workers have been involved with cases where a patient’s death was linked to delay, according to a GMB Union survey for ITV.
