Erbyn yr adeg yma’r llynedd, roeddem eisoes yn cael gaeaf anodd. Fe ddatblygodd i fod yn aeaf arbennig o hir, a fyddai’n herio gwasanaethau mewn sawl ffordd. Erbyn 23 Ebrill, pan wneuthum fy natganiad i’r Cynulliad, roedd yn amlwg fod angen mynd ati fel un i gynllunio a gwella’r  gwasanaethau ar gyfer gofal heb ei drefnu. Cyhoeddais amrywiaeth eang o gamau gweithredu, gyda’r bwriad o’u cyflwyno drwy Raglen Genedlaethol ar gyfer Gofal Heb ei Drefnu.
This time last year we were already experiencing a difficult winter. It went on to become particularly long and brought with it many service delivery challenges. By 23 April, when I made my statement to the Assembly, it was clear that a concerted effort was needed to plan and improve unscheduled care services. I therefore announced a wide range of actions, all of which would be taken forward through a National Unscheduled Care Programme.
