Even someone from the same Department phoned me and I told them I just left the country I gave them my availability.

They told me we received your complain. I told them I didnt talk to PALS about this and I am aware the referal was received as a person on behalf of the manager confirmed me this on 9Oct15. I also told them I provided by telephone with dates I will not ba available but they lost their temper, become rude and threatened me to call security if I do nt leave.All this in the waitin area in fron of pages who witnessed she was the rude one. Then I was told it was PALS instructions when it is supposed to raise a concern or complaint should not adversely affect the care and treatment in anyway.
