My grandson was sent by Gp to RHSC at Queen Elizabeth Glasgow with vomiting and drowsiness he only two and half years old.
Triaged within 15minutes then left in waiting room to give him medication every 15minutes during which time he was vomiting and very distressed.
Waiting room is clearly doubled up as a treatment room as several children were receiving medication by nurses who came out squirted medications into distressed children then back behind the doors of ED.
Is this really 21st century healthcare to the children of Scotland! ! The parents and children were clearly all distressed the waiting room is very small, the sun was very warm via the stained glass windows and there was no ventilation just screaming children.
I am throroughly disgusted at the approach this department is taking to children and hope my grandson is not significantly ill.
I feel that NHS Scotland has nothing to be proud of providing care in this way it should hang its head in shame.
