Attended A&E on Saturday 21st July 2018.
I had, had an accident and seriously cut my wrist.
Within minutes of being in A&E a nurse was by my side applying a dressing and asking if I needed painkillers.
After I’d say about 20 minutes I was seen by a lovely Dr, who checked my wound and sent me to X-ray to make sure there were no foreign bodies in my wound.
X-ray staff, very quick, lovely and efficient.
Back to A&E and waited possibly 40 minutes to see the Dr again.
I needed 3 stitches and the Dr put me at ease and we had a good rapport.
I thanked him fully as he was so kind, he did tell me however that he had just been given a mouthful by another patient and I felt so sorry for him as no NHS staff needs this kind of abuse!
I did see for myself your security staff being abused by a member of public on the same date.
I then went back to my seat after being stitched to wait for a nurse to give me my tetanus injection.
Would like to say a huge thank you to you all.
You were so kind and compassionate.
"Thank you so much"
