"A&E"

About: Musgrove Park Hospital (Taunton)

Visited A&E on Monday afteer getting toxic fluid in my eye. I was seen very quickly by Triage, the nurse who first saw me was great, she really helped me to see the funny side of everything and didnt make me at all embarassed about a stupid accident. I was taken through very quickly and again the same nurse and her colleague who washed out my eye were kind and gentle. The Dr I saw was great, very informative and I was out in under two hours. As a clumsy person I tend to fall a lot and also have back problems that lead to a lot of visits to hospital and this was probably the most efficient and least traumatic one yet. OK I would have preferred not to have been stuck in the plaster room but being busy is something the department can help as there is only one eye room.
