During my treatment in A&E the doctor advised that I would need to stay in hospital overnight, my husband was to told, that I would be sent to the assesment centre, after my husband left the duty nurse informed me the bed manager said there is not beds so we will have to keep me here, to make me feel more comfortable the offered me a pillow. I was then taken to a nearby corridor across from the reception desk. The lights were then switched off. My blood pressure was taken twice in the dark conditions.
I felt very degraded and dissapointed by the total experience, I have paid into the system all my life, and hope I never go through the dreadfull experience again.
I look forward to your reply
"No beds available for me"
