I wish to express how I felt during my most recent experience in A& E. Your A& E receptionists, they are the first people you come in to contact with. I was in a mental health crisis and, I felt their manner with me was just that I was, “wasting their time”. They cannot judge what comes through the door, I deserve help as much as anybody else. Just because I happen to need A& E care on a regular basis, does not give them the right to be judgmental with me.
