After a 14 hour wait, very little communication and like being in a third world country, my partner and I left. The scenes we witnessed overnight whilst waiting in the A&E department, were not only shocking, but horrifying and terrifying at the same time. The amount of criminals coming through the doors and being given priority/special treatment was a disgrace to humanity. Frail & frightened old people who’d been sat on their own for outrageous amounts of time, witnessing such disorder and disrespect was truly disgraceful. My partner and I have been dumbfounded since leaving the hospital, we are in complete shock about what we witnessed and what we were put through and yet still didn’t get the treatment I so desperately needed. This country and our NHS and police system needs some serious looking at. One of the worst experiences of my life and my partner is terrified to go back. The governing bodies should be ashamed.
