My daughter attended MIU at Buxton Hospital one the morning last week after suffering chest pains during the night. We didn’t feel the situation was urgent but felt she needed to be seen by someone who could assess her and give us advice and support.
Sadly this did not happen. The emergency nurse practitioner spoke to my 20yr old daughter in a very sarcastic way, smirking and laughing at her, asking why she thought it was the right place to come, they couldn't do anything for her here, she needs to go to her doctors. The way this person spoke to my daughter was rude and inappropriate. She wanted reassurance and care. Dreadful behaviour from a nurse.
