The London Ambulance Service has asked Healthwatch Westminster for advice on how they can improve the emergency and urgent care that they provide for Londoners.

The London Ambulance Service has a statutory duty to provide emergency and urgent care deemed appropriate. Emergency care applies in a life-threatening event, followed by a 999 call. Urgent care applies to non-life-threatening events, in which patients are transferred to a medical professional/provider for a clinical assessment, through the NHS 111 support system. We want to know ways in which the London Ambulance service can improve emergency and urgent care, as well as health inequality. This is to ensure that patients get the right care, the right way at the right time.

Survey closes on 20 January 2023.

In the past three years, have you used any urgent and emergency care services such as A&E, ambulances, and/or NHS 111? This could be for yourself, or on behalf of someone else.
