GP advised me to go to A&E due to a suspected DVT. Over a 5 hr period I was moved to two areas and was asked to move to a third but I refused and discharged myself. There was poor communication, when I asked why I was being moved they said "waiting for blood results". Why was I asked to move to a different chair in Majors and then CDU. The nursing staff were not really bothered that I was in there department as neither sisters directly spoke to me, gave me any eye contact, one said to the HCA while I was standing there "she can go" again without even looking at me. Question why was I moved to different departments? Was it due to fact I was breaching targets? ? Where we're the 6 C's?
"Being in Good Hope Hospitals A&E dept for nearly 5hrs."
