My Daughter Was an out patient After A Scan 9th of August due to being severely dehydrated. One nurse, One Dr, With 2 other Support Staff members on a full . The emergency buttons went off repeatedly and these individuals were run off their feet. Not once did I see a face without a caring smile, not once did we feel mistakes would be made, what I did feel was sad that across a period of 6 hrs no one had had a break! After several bags of water and anti sick drugs, care and attention my daughter was admitted to in patients. Easy transition, one that took awhile as staff were thin on the ground. Although the team did a great job, it's unnerving to recognize that the staffing is low as it's easy when folks are over worked for mistakes to be made. I am concered that staff will become over worked, under appreciated and demoralized eventually and you will begin to lose some great people.
