Extreme levels of demand on the Welsh NHS and the impact of Covid-19 are hindering the quality of care given to those most in need, it is claimed.
Latest monthly Welsh Government data shows that the performance of A&E departments and the Welsh Ambulance Service have deteriorated, and the number of people on an NHS Wales waiting list has increased to record levels once again.
In November 2021 there were 682,279 people waiting for non-urgent NHS care – a rise from the 679,626 recorded in October and way up on the 456,809 seen just before the pandemic hit.
