Make you wait for nearly 12 hours without being seen with no bed or pain relief and keep asking you to get up and come to them for tests only to be told sorry can’t help it’s a you problem. Never have I had such rude and unprofessional behaviour from people who are meant to help you get better.
Chloe Hutt, 2 years agoI've just been spoken to exceptionally rudely by a nurse in this department. Was told to leave the bed because I was taking up space. I was put there, I didn't ask for it. I'm feeling very drowsy due to painkillers I took for a badly broken finger, so I do not appreciate such rude treatment.
Mary Browne, 2 years agoThay are very very selw and looks they don't care about nothing.
