The list is in alphabetical order, not a ranking. This is a fact about the A&E department, not a grade or a verdict. Departments see different patients: one that admits more people, or takes the most seriously ill, will often have longer times.
The figures are for type 1 and 2 departments: major emergency departments open 24 hours, and specialist ones such as eye hospitals. Urgent treatment centres, minor injury units and walk-in centres are not included.
NHS England publishes the latest month (September 2026) as provisional and may revise it next month.
