A Renfrewshire-based MSP has urged the health secretary to “get a grip of this crisis” or stand down after new statistics show A&E waiting times continue to hit new lows.
Figures published by Public Health Scotland (PHS) show just 61.9 per cent of people attending accident and emergency (A&E) departments in the week up to Sunday, November 27 were seen and subsequently admitted or discharged within four hours.
The figure dropped from 63.1 per cent the week before.
