Called out of hours 111 this morning about my son as he has a very snotty nose swollen glands and a bad cough.
Told to go to what I thought was the out of hours GP at the hospital. When I got there they said my appointment was in urgent care which is in A&E
I turn up there. I’m given some sort of buzzer alarm and told when it buzzes to go back outside and find a cabin where I’ll be seen.
I find the whole thing really shadey. Firstly because I shouldn’t be at A&E for what seems like a viral illness and secondly the buzzer and having to find a cabin outside.
Also it was like a 3rd world ■■■■ hole in there. So I left.
I’ve had 2 phone calls since leaving. One from the nurse and one from the doctor. I told them I’m not having my son wait in a 3rd world ■■■■ hole. And that I have every right saying that as I’ve actually been to one.
