Anything else?
My mother has difficulty breathing. She came in through A&E and spent the night waiting for a bed. When she told the nurse manhandling her that she couldn't breathe, the nurse said 'just open your mouth - that's all there is to it' The same nurse shared her witty joke with a colleague afterwards, laughing at my mums expense. My mum is very ill, but she discharged herself and came home the same day rather than be ignored and abused in this awful hospital. Disgraceful. Where is the compassion?
"Uncaring and callous"
