I visited A&E at pinderfield hospital yesterday following a 60 mph RTA on the M1, in which both cars are a write off, (to give you some degree of the severity). I was seen within 20 mins by the triage sister who took the same details as the receptionist. The sister look like she’d been sucking lemons and didn’t offer me analgesia. The HCA dropped the BP cuff on the floor and didn’t clean it. We waited 3 hours even though the board stated the waiting time was 1 hr 58 mins. I asked for pain relief to be told that ‘the dr had my notes, and I couldn’t have any. I was in that much pain I couldn’t sit in the metal chairs,
I had to get my own pain relief. I was taken into a side room to see a the A&E consultation who saw me for 3 minutes yes 3 MINUTES. I winced when he touched me and was told he needs to examine me. I was sent home without pain relief, being made to feel like I am inconvenience. If the A&E consultant and nursing sister deliver care like this, what hope is there for junior staff. Your service is a disgrace. The worst care I’ve ever received
