On 5th January 2015 I was taken to a and e at Q M C . There was up to forty patients on trolleys in the department , all the bays full. I was having treatment in front of patients and left in a corridor for an hour after a chest X ray. I was told as I had a suspected heat attack I needed anotherblood test at 10.15 p m . This still had not happened by 11.30 p m . I had to get my husband to phone the lady on reception as we could not get anyone to talk to us.H e was told that I would now be checked on . I did get an appolgy from the doctor. But if the only way to get a response by using a mobile phone to get some info instead of face to face . It was shocking service.when I was discharged I asked where can I get dressed I was told by the doctor I would have to go to the public toilet down the corridor to get dressed,
"accident and emergency department"
