Was admitted to Carlisle A and E with chest pain. Whilst on holiday in Lake District. From the supherb ambulance staff and the lovely doctors and nurses I felt in very capable hands. I was quickly seen by nurse and doctor and reassured. Unfortunately I had to remain in A and E all night because there were no beds in main hospital available till 8 am. These nurses worked so hard and kept pleasant and cheerful all night. I was offered food and hot drinks and kept warm. The only downside was the clutter and paraphernalia blocking some corridors making it difficult to get to the toilet. But thank you everyone for looking after me .
