The Independent - Ambulance delays cause ‘severe harm’ to record 6,000 patients a month

Summary of the front page

The Independent says a record number of patients suffered “severe harm” as a result of ambulance delays in December, soaring by nearly 50 per cent in just one month as the NHS crisis deepened. Almost 6,000 suffered permanent or long-term harm due to long waits to hand over patients outside A&Es – up from just over 4,000 in November.

The front page also features an image of missing actor Julian Sands – who went missing whilst hiking in southern California.
