"An appauling experiance."

Anything else?

I was booked into the UCC on the 2nd August at 22:45, after not being seen in there before closing at midnight I was transferred into the A&E. It was well after midnight before I saw the triage nurse and then the doctor, When discussing my injuries they both ignored the information I had giiven about my ankle, and only observed my knee injury. After being xrayed and talking with the registra, to find out it was soft tissue damage to the area around the kneecap, the doctor had told me that it would need to be supported, she came back with a pair of crutches and informed me that there was no bandages or tubigrip to support my knee, which I thought was appaulling, The camp I was at in Downe has stopped sending their serious injuries to PRU and have began sending them to Queen Mary's in Sidcup.
