Since the delivery plan for recovering urgent and emergency care services was published in January 2023, a detailed demand and capacity planning exercise has been undertaken with all 42 integrated care boards to ensure the commitment of an additional 5,000 general and acute beds will be delivered in addition to other interventions, including same day emergency care, virtual wards and intermediate care. Plans have also been agreed with Ambulance Trusts to increase ambulance capacity across England.
