Martha's Rule rolled out at every A&E department in England

The NHS is expanding Martha's Rule to all A&E departments in England by March 2028, allowing patients, families, and staff to request an urgent second opinion if they fear concerns about deteriorating care are being ignored. The rule is named after 13-year-old Martha Mills, who died of sepsis in 2021 after her family's concerns were not acted upon. Officials call the measure a critical new lifeline and say pilot calls have already led to life-saving interventions.
