My 10 year-old child had an autistic meltdown in the middle of the fracture clinic waiting room. Staff were understanding and compassionate. They found a room for us to use while it passed, and were able to complete the treatment swiftly after (repotting), offering to do so in the same room. It's always tricky for my child when they have a meltdown in public - afterwards they are embarrassed. Being able to be in a room away from everyone really helped. Thank you so much.
