About: Sale Hospital / Emergency Department

(as a carer),

My wife presented to the emergency department in so much pain that she was throwing up. Over 1. 5 hours later and she still hasn't even been triaged. In my opinion, what a joke.

Dear jazzwy59

My name is Mandy and I am the Director of Nursing for the Sale Hospital at Central Gippsland Health. Thank you so much for your feedback and for taking the time to provide us with your story regarding your stay at Central Gippsland Health.

I am sorry that you and your wife have had this experience, as the staff try really hard to provide the best care possible. I will discuss this with the Emergency Department team to try and understand what has happened.

I would be keen to gain more detail from you so that I can fully investigate. If you feel you can, it would be great if you can make contact with me to discuss this further. I would be more than happy to talk with you. You can contact me on 51438 512 or via email at mandy.pusmucans@cghs.com.au.

I hope that your wife’s health is improving.

Kind regards

Mandy
