Health Correspondent @BeccaBarry has seen first-hand the extreme pressure being faced by the NHS this winter.
ITV News was invited to film inside Barnet hospital where they found wards full to capacity, staff stretched to their limits - and patients who had given up hope.
Patients thanked staff for delivering amazing care, despite the pressures of winter as part of an @itvnews report filmed at Barnet Hospital.
Health correspondent Rebecca Barry (@BeccaBarry) filmed with staff and patients across the hospital to find out about their experiences this winter. Among those she spoke to were patient Alexandra who thanked staff for looking after her while she waited for tests to be carried out.
The report is due to be broadcast on ITV News throughout today and it is also available to view here ๐ https://t.co/EBKO5uIkHJ
Patients at Barnet Hospital will benefit from a new urgent treatment centre (UTC) which opened this week as part of the urgent and emergency care redevelopment project. ๐ https://t.co/iLoX8a4ikq
The entrance to the Barnet Hospital urgent treatment centre (UTC), is now via the main hospital entrance on your right after the Macmillan stand and just before the PALS office. Thank you to the brilliant @royalfreechty volunteers who are directing patients.
Men make up about a quarter of the NHS workforce.
Thank you for everything you to do make patients' lives better, today and every day.

Team walk round in prep of opening our new ED front door at Barnet. We are all delighted that this build will bring a bigger waiting room and a dedicated UTC and SDEC space for our patients. Very exciting times ahead ๐@DeborahBalkwill@bevthomas66@YvonneGoddard5 @lukeybrown1991
@British_Airways@swissportNews yet again issues with BA for return trip home - unable to check bags in until 5.30pm (Vegas Time). Empty check in. #Early#Late#CantWin - letโs hope the flight is better than when we came.
A little disappointed with @British_Airways on this occasion - flying from LHR - LAX #777 - everything feeling rushed and if youโre at the back in eco - forgotten about. Worried BA have lost their spark. Hopefully return trip for us will be better #Disappointed#BAFaithful
Great to see V&A at the forefront - de-escalation should always come first, but there are times when a line needs to be drawn #PatientSafety#StaffSafety
Our Chief Nurse @mcmanusb talking to staff today about #RespectOurSafety our new campaign @NHSHomerton to tackle violence and aggression against staff. Come and find out more tomorrow at Hackney ARK and Friday at the Hospital main entrance.
But I want to say thank you to EVERYONE at Barnet Hospital A&E dept. From the loving receptionist with the arm full of tattoos to the nurse who scavenged a recliner for me at 3am, to Jack, Michelle, Jen, fellow sufferers in side room of ED all burning w pain and all being so kind
