Queued with seven other ambulance patients for half an hour before being signed in.
No proper triage done.
Blood tests and BP/oxygen tests done in corridor.
Sent to majors lite to join 14 others waiting to be seen.
Called in for ECg, no explanation why this was needed.
Told to go back into waiting area.
Waited six hours to see doctor.
No priority for seriously ill patients. Three with cut to a hand, one drunk, two upset stomachs were seen before me, I had internal bleeding. This was not seen by a doctor for six hours after arrival.
No what to do if... Just a letter to GP for something else that was found.
Staff busy laughing and joking about non-work matters, no attempt to respect ill patients.
