Hillingdon Hospital achieves best ambulance handover times in England
We have been recognised as the top-performing Trust in England for ambulance handover times, according to the latest data published by NHS England. The achievement, based on October's National Ambulance statistics, highlights our unwavering commitment to patient safety and operational efficiency.
Each month, NHS England publishes comprehensive data on ambulance handover times, a critical measure of how quickly patients are transferred from ambulance crews to hospital care. For October, Hillingdon Hospital stood out nationwide, managing over 1,000 ambulance handovers with an average wait time of under 13 minutes.
Our positive outcomes are a result of our hospital teams working collaboratively to streamline processes and to ensure our patients receive swift and continuous medical attention.
