I took my son in law to the Derby Royal A&E last night at approximately 10.00pm. He thought he had some metal in his eye from work he is an electrical engineer. We were sent to the blue room and left waiting after around 2hrs waiting we were moved back to the arrivals waiting room and just left. We watched ambulances arrive and staff were treating people on or directly from ambulances which we assumed would be emergencies but they couldn’t all have been. We waiting for another 2-3 hrs and left he had to get up for work the following day. At 7.30 this morning j26:10/23 he received a call from the hospital wanting to know if he was still at the hospital which would have been 9+hrs. The whole experience was a complete joke and we just pray we never have to visit the place in a life or death situation. We have both paid everything into the system expecting some sort of help when needed bu no.
