They just wait to get people off their books

Accident and emergency services
January 23, 2023
Saw a gentleman with alcoholism waiting at A&E for 7 hours who was diabetic. Nurses put him down as being a nuisance patient. He ended up discharging himself and ended up back in A&E and admitted. But consultants don’t care, they just wait to get people off their books.

Hospital did really well

January 9, 2023
I had a stroke in 2018 and they did really well. I was in the hospital for 5/6 days, it was frightening but they were really good. I've not had much experience with hospitals but this was good.
