"Broken Hand"

About: Barnsley Hospital / Accident and emergency

I hurt my hand on 12/4/17 and suspected it to be broken. I went to A&E the following day, I was checked in, seen by a triage nurse, the doctor, the radiographer and had my X-rays checked over all in the space of 2.5 hours. They confirmed I had indeed broken my hand.

The waiting room had 18 people in, including myself on arrival. Considering it was fairly busy to be in and out in under 3 hours was a pleasant surprise.
