After being treated for water infections, my 78 year old mother sat in A&E for 6 hours and was totally ignored. She gave up and came home. I made her go private and they discovered she had burst appendix!!

I am sorry to hear about your mother's experience in the emergency department. I would welcome a discussion to understand her experience in more detail. If you can send me an email at katy.white@medway.nhs.uk with your mum's details, we can arrange a time to talk. Thank you Katy White Head of Nursing - Emergency Department
