I wish to thank staff from ambulance service ,and full nurse ,doctors and support teams.I was taking into hospital on the 7 DEC this was the very first time I have been treated by this trust , It did not take minutes to find out staff were there to give 100% care with as much hands on as possible. From a&e to eau unit team then to ward 5 , all fantastic many thanks I myself I can't stand forced duct air heating this causes me to strain to get air inside of me ,it causes me to go into coughing fits then vomints , this greatly increases my organs to work harder than normal .First nite I stood all nite on the landing on ward 5 ,so that was the second nite no sleep eau was the same to hot , so I said enough is enough I got my belongings and left , to my disbelief at about 2 am Saturday morning a morpeth ambulance nearly caved my front door in at home for me to go back to hospital I went but again sat on a chair on landing all nite then into TV room , so some time later a doctor came I was conned into thinking I was getting meds to go home to see me over until I found a new gp , no hospital pharmacy closed Saturday it was only for me to sign a form to say I left of my own free will ,just so there backs were covered and I wasted 12 hrs for that .I will for ward this letter on to a legal team when a person can't be beside duct air heating and a hospital has not got the time to make 1 person a VIP I can understand that all I wanted was somewhere cooler and not be forced to breath in unwanted dry air and spoors from a to hot air feed grems yes u got your revenge because I signed myself out Alan tweddell.
