Corridor care is not safe care.
Nurses, doctors, and health care staff in Wales are being forced to treat and care for patients in corridors, car parks, and other places where safe care simply isn't possible.
Add your voice to the petition today and help end corridor care in Wales. Anyone can sign the petition, including members of the public. Corridor care is everyone's concern, and we need as many voices as possible.
