Walsall Manor Hospital bosses: We will hit A&E targets by June
Health chiefs have claimed the Manor Hospital will hit national A&E waiting time targets by June after failing to reach the benchmark for more than two years.
Not since May 2015 have hospital chiefs ensured that 95 per cent of patients were dealt with within the required four hours.
But a "Walsall Vision for Emergency and Urgent Care" aims that it will indeed be back to the requirement this summer by introducing a raft of measures.
However the Manor is already underperforming against targets in the plan, which has been drawn up by the cross-organisation A&E Delivery Board.
The aim was for the hospital to be hitting a 90 per cent success rate by last September but despite recent improvement it has not managed above 87 per cent this year, which un-validated figures recorded for November.
The 'Vision' is set to be discussed by Walsall Council's Health and Wellbeing Board on Thursday.
