"Fantastic A&E visit."

How nice to be able to praise an A&E Dept..

I had occasion to visit on Saturday morning at about 11:45-12:00.

The sign outside said a 4 hour wait, so my expectations were set low before even entering the department.

I had dislocated my shoulder, so the prospect of a four hour wait, was less than appealing!.

After booking in at reception I took a seat in the waiting area..

Not three minutes later, my name was called, and I was ushered into an office.

Two minutes of detail taking, before a Nurse Practitioner came in and escorted me to the Major injuries Dept.

Five minutes later,

I was waiting for an X-Ray, and ten minutes after that, I was having a sling put on.....

In all probably no more than 40 minutes had gone by.....

Not once did I have to wait, or have any concerns about staff standing round, apparently doing little else than catching up on the gossip...

Everyone I saw was polite, courteous, professional..

Well Done Weston A&E..

Showing the rest of the less well run Depts, how it's done!...
