    The Sydney hospital where one in 10 patients waits more than 43 hours

    One in 10 Blacktown emergency patients waited more than 43 hours to be admitted or transferred.

    ...while almost 9 per cent give up and leave without completing treatment.

    NSW has not met any of its access targets for emergency wait times, which stipulate that at least 80 per cent of patients should be admitted or transferred to another hospital within six hours, according to Bureau of Health Information data published on Wednesday.

      43 hours is a long time. Do they provide food for those waiting?
