I visited this hospital as a paitent and a visitor both times I've been very disappointed and disturbed by the service they've given me and the paitent I accompanied. I came in with chest pains to a&e. I had given my history that I had recently been rushed to my local hospital a week prior to this visit with similar pains. There treatment for me was to take some pain killers once I had gotten home and that was it. The paitent I accompanied had a push bike accident which evolved him coming off his bike at 30mph, he was lucky to come off with a few grazes but his bike helmet is cracked from the impact, if I was a health professions instead of cleaning his wounds which I will add not properly my first priority would be to check the patient head/neck or at least take some interest but no they just prescribed pain killer to make the patient drowsy. not clever to someone you may have a concussion. well done NHS Bolton you've truly scared me.
