Understanding Covid-19 vaccine hesitancy

November 30, 2020 by John Landels

NSMC carries out research in A&E

October 10, 2019 by John Bromley

The NSMC has just completed a primary research project to identify the reasons why people go to A&E rather than other urgent care services that may be more appropriate to their needs.  The research is very revealing with many people stating that they judge the waiting time of often over three hours at A&E more favourable than other healthcare alternatives, especially when they believed they would need some form of diagnostic test that would take place in a hospital.
