Summary, etc. The A&E department - a vital component of the NHS and one where access is uncontrolled - was once famously described by Tony Blair as the "shop window of the NHS". They are the hubs of local emergency care systems and foremost in the mind of the public as the place people can go for care at any time of day or night. For some time now, A&E departments have struggled to meet the target that at least 95 per cent of people should spend less than four hours in A&E from arrival to departure. Many reasons are suggested for this decline, but this Quality watch in-depth analysis of A&E activity uses de-identified person-level data to examine the influence of some of the most commonly proposed causes of pressure in A&E.
