Referred by the GP. The wait was over 4 hours which was fine for me, carer, but hard for the patient in their eighties. The first consultation was held in a visitors room as there was no room inside. Eventually he was admitted and had to sit upright in a chair in front of nurses station. Several people were in the same position. It was nearer 10-11 pm before a bed was found and situated in corridor between two other beds.
The care was good which is surprising under the circumstances.
Too many patients, too few staff. A disgrace in my view.
