A&E Long waiting times
Accident and emergency services
July 16, 2024
Waiting time in A&E is very long , there’s no beds , they need more staff to help out . Could students studying in medical heath services etc volunteer to help out to ease pressure and reduce waiting times ?
Lack of interest of my head injury.

I stopped being able urinate and was in agony. The nursing staff scored 5tars plus they were amazing. The very young doctor not so much as she hadn't heard of urodynia. I was discharged with a catheter in. Unfortunately when I spoke to my GP my discharge hadn't been loaded on the computer and no and made to TWOC clinic.My GP had to sort everything out.

I was taken to pinderfields hospital by ambulance, from being checked in at a&e I wasn’t seen by a doctor for over 12 hours also one of my blood tests was lost. The wait time to see a doctor is ridiculous and will end up in people losing their lives unless something is done about the wait times. I was finally seen by a doctor after being transferred to the same day emergency care team in the hospital, I can only think I was transferred to this department to get a&e numbers down to make the situation in a&e not look as bad.
Awesome staff !

My 81 year old mother was alone when given a terminal diagnosis at 1 o’clock in the morning after a 10 hour wait in A&E. She was never referred to oncology, just switched between care of the elderly and respiratory wards at will, this resulted in her being discharged home with no further care in place. This is a brief summary of what was a tragic experience for our entire family. My mother-in-law must have had a similar experience during April-July 20 where she caught covid in Pinderfields and remained an in patient for 4 months - her mantra now is “help me, help me” I can only assume this is a remnant of her “care” in the hospital
Extremely disappointing and upsetting

Elderly Asian relative treated with very little respect, lack of care, ward doesn’t answer your phone call despite trying multiple times. Both patient and relatives feeling vulnerable during this difficult time.
Staff amazing care 1st class

My grandad was admitted and stayed at gate 41 for 3 days. We were so worried as we couldn’t see him or speak with him so was relying on phone contact with nurses.
There were some delays in the phones being answered but we do understand that. I’d like to specifically mention one member of staff, who spoke to me twice in one day to update me fully on his condition, the plans and what they would investigate or do once certain results came back. She empathised with how we were feeling and gave me the time to ask anything and did not make me feel rushed, even though I know she was very busy. On being discharged my grandad said that on one occasion someone would not pour him a drink when he asked, as they said they’d seen him walk to the toilet. He’d only asked as he was shaking and worried about spilling. Other than that 1 incident, he said he had been looked after brilliantly and could not fault anyone else. That’s reassuring considering how frightened he’d been about being in there alone.
