"Visit to A &E made me feel worse"

About: Dorset County Hospital / Accident and emergency

(as the patient),

I had self harmed and went to A & E for treatment, the nurse I saw was very abrupt and I ended up feeling worse than when I went in.

I know that they will be concerned to read that you felt worse after your visit and will be grateful that you have brought it to our attention.
