I was sent to A&E for an Asthma Attack, followed by a few minutes by an epileptic one and my heart went bonkers. Then it calmed down by fits after fits after fits...Harsh painful ones all ignored. Happy= Not Happy. Looking after, after paying so much taxes= Laughing after. This is what I got after being on the floor after a fit! Great!
Care was Nada. NHS understaffed and underfunded is a bloody reality. NHS workers being blazé about being overworked is a fact of life. You can be in pain on the floor and a nurse will close the curtain for all to not see what is happening in your cubicle. You can struggle up until your fit goes away. At the end I was finally brought to a trolley where I was left for ages in another cubicle away from sight. But you hear laughter when you fit again. NICE CARE=NONE. I can sing the Beatles to you out loud, HELP.... I need somebody to help. But nowadays our careworkers, nurses and Doctors are so underpaid that even when you need help they are totally dispondant.
Yes, I walked on all four to reach a sink and plastic glass by myself to clear my mouth after vomiting blood in the sink:Laugh. Great, the level of care was abysmal that day. I discharged myself. No wonder. They only were watching my epileptic fits like playing up acts. Like you are puking blood for your own pleasure or having fits for your own pleasure and hurting for your own pleasure... Reality check for F'ck sake:Have I not paid my taxes for you to get paid for me to have a bit of help in my hours of need? Are you for REAL? I am living in a clockwork orange world because you are underpaid you don't care any longer and dare to laugh at someone having a fit.
I am not going to A&E or anywhere any longer my last place will be my grave: Banning someone if they need help! Come on! Multiple calls doesn't mean an arsehole is on the line? It might means someone needs CARE and HELP. Didn't it reach your brain? Or all of a sudden facing so many patients you can't deal with your choice of career. So because the governement is treating you like shit paying you peanuts instead of what you truly deserve which is a hell of a lot more in my point of you, you will treat someone with an ailment with disdain?
And then there are the question of targets and numbers... Things to be achieved to look good. A+, B-, etc, etc, etc. The more patients discharged quickly and not looked after decently can look like a decent number for more decent fundings. Be effective by being humanly deffective. The aim could work eventually for a pay rise depending on the gouvernement, but on the heart human scale the love is going down, I am afraid to say so. But you are grafters and I know so, but carry on grafting with a compassionate heart and don't let anyone anymore distrust you like I do now.
