"the a a&e staff were appalling"

About: Cumberland Infirmary

Anything else?

in 2011 at the time I was a late 30's professional woman on a night out that resulted in an unprovoked assault I was treat like an absolute lump of meat. Although I was in the wrong place at the wrong time so they say! I was left traumatised after police had left and taken my clothes for forensics. Once my facial swelling went down it was confirmed that I had a broken eyesocket, nose and cheekbone with permanent nerve damage. it really helped that i had to leave half naked in a gown in distress. not everyone that arrives in an ambulance late at night has been fighting. assault is different and your attitude was appalling. no faith whatsoever, you need a severe review
