"My Treatment"

I attended the walk-in centre at Leigh infirmary yesterday, the receptionist and the young nurse who originally saw me and took my details were both lovely, however, instead of a nurse then dressing my legs it was a young physiotherapist that called me in.

From the beginning it was plain they didn't want to do it he started with saying this should be the district nurse's job, they hardly spoke to me and started to clean my legs it was like they were scrubbing the kitchen floor, i told them they were really hurting me, and I am not soft, they just carried on, they then told me to leave but i told them I was  suppose to be having a tetnus injection, they tuted and went away to get it, they then gave me that and advised me to ring the district nurses for the first appointment.

I was really made to feel I shouldn't have been there, I do think they should have some lessons in how to deal with people I am 77yrs old and don't use this service unless I have to but was made to feel I went for nothing by them.

I have had nothing but bad pain in one of my legs since he scrubbed it.
