When hospitals cannot keep patients cool, the most vulnerable pay with their lives.
Patients died in 'suffocating' heatwave conditions on NHS wards, nurses say
Nurses across NHS hospitals reported that patients died in what they described as 'suffocating' heatwave conditions on wards, with temperatures in some bays exceeding 30C. Staff said cooling systems failed, windows could not be opened fully and fans were unavailable, leaving elderly and ill patients struggling to breathe. The reports have prompted calls for an urgent review of hospital heat protocols and investment in air conditioning ahead of further high temperatures.
