I was taken to A&E (Minors) by ambulance, the crew were first class professionals, polite and caring. I was put in a cubicle in A&E, the paramedic cleaned the bed, The floor had tissues with blood laying around. .I was in discomfort and had to ask for a pillow. A nurse wandered in and wandered out again without doing or saying anything. I was left alone in the cubicle without seeing anyone for ages, I thought they had forgotten me. Eventually a nurse came and put a cannula in my arm and took bloods. I appreciate that I had to wait for blood test results but it would have been nice if a nurse popped in occasionally to ask how I was. The team were so slow and had a couldn't care less attitude, certainly not up to the high standard of MAU and the wards. Maybe the team were tired, they acted that way.
"Poor care"
