Corridor nursing reaches crisis point in the emergency department

Kevin Stent/Stuff Nurses have had to look after the patients in ED corridors for years but it is now reaching crisis point, a top nurse says. “It is not meant to be used as a space for patient care. With the corridor, often there are no staff assigned to look after them. At the moment we are concerned about the risk of errors.” There are serious problems in providing care in corridors, such as lack of privacy and dignity. It also means there is no space for a sick patient s support person, an issue which impacts older couples who come into the department, she said.
