I recently came here with a bleeding cut injury on my foot. A nurse attended to it and gave me a heads up that wait is going to be long, like a couple of hours, as they are very busy. And it was almost coming to 2 and a half hours wait and I didn't know how much longer it was going to take to see the doctor.
Meanwhile, the pain intensified and the injury area was swelled up and when I asked for help I was given a Panadol by the nurse again. It really felt horrible. How are patients with emergencies supposed to hold it together with longer waiting times?
