Health Secretary Yvette Cooper has asked NHS England to draw up urgent plans to stop children being treated in hospital corridors. She also wants new standards for how children are cared for in A&E, and says official figures will start counting children separately. More than a dozen health groups had urged action. Cooper said no patient of any age should be treated in a corridor.
