I came into the hospital by ambulance roughly at 12 in the afternoon I had a high temperature soninhad slippers and a tracksuit on that's it after being checked in I was told to sit out side and wait after telling the doctors I am having difficulties breathing dizziness my lower back and my abdominal was in agony and I have the runs I was called in after 2 and a half hours to get checked give blood and urine sample I am absolutely frozen the doctor asked me to wait outside I was not happy but I did see there were people with serious illnesses to me.
I totally understand the doctors and nurses are rushed of there feet but when I'm trying to ask someone for a gown or something to keep me warm I'm being ignored I feel faint and helpless why does everything take 5 hours it's a joke I just need to lie down I've been told to drink water and rest but was not given anything to drink or keep warm I am disgusted with the treatment.
The doctor I had was helpful but he could only do so much.
"Poor service"
