My mother was taken to A & E on 6th Sept and was not asked for urine sample, only blood. She was severely dehydrated as she had been sick for 12 hours. Saline drip
Given then at 1:45am she was discharged. No pills.
Next day mother was still vomiting in pain same symptoms as night before. Called her GP and he felt that it was a failed discharge. Called 999. Excellent service. Went back and new sister took Urine sample. Doctor saw her and told her she was suffering from a bad bout of diverticulitis. Antibiotics and saline drip administered. Left at 2:30 in the morning. Told there were no beds. Treating a 89 year old at that time of night took the guts out of Mum and she is still slowly recovering.
The staff were very kind and took care of her and apologied that they could not keep her in.
