"mentally ill not tolerated"

About: Sunderland Royal Hospital

I was at the a&e dept end of April 2015

one nurse( ironic to call someone a nurse who was so harsh)

told me i shouldnt ring for an ambulance for not being able to

sleep

it was evident i was very distressed but no accommodation was made for that

i would never pursposelly abuse the nhs

i suffer from one mental health disorder and a neurodevelopemental disorder.

so a warning!dont go to a&e at sunderland royal hospital for mental illness they dont care.

one paramedic was very kind and the auxiliary nurses are kind .
