7 months waiting to be sent home

July 10, 2024
They just send you home when you go to them. I had to wait 7 months for an appointment and then just send you home. That is why we got referred to another hospital. They are not helpful.

To find parking is the most difficult thing. They need more parking for patients.

It was a ball game trying to get assessments for my non-verbal children and get an EHCP in place. They were good with the children and pushing for assessments.
