This trust would be a joke if it wasn't so serious.
Patients have been sitting in the A&E waiting room unseen for over 5 hours.
I understand and expect that emergencies take precedence but to leave patients In severe pain with no analgesia is unacceptable.
No-one minds waiting for more seriously ill patients to be seen but they do mind waiting in pain
