Had to go to childrens A&E 2 weeks ago as daughter hurt her wrist.
Arrived at 10pm and waited 5 hours to be seen and it was absolutely rammed full, one parent per child and they were still running out of seats.
Anyways my daughter was sore and getting frustrated and was saying " she doesnt look unwell, He doesnt look unwell" l and I turned to her and said "YOU dont look unwell either" 😂
Anywyas turned out her wrist was infact broken.
But it made me think, there wasnt really any children that looked very unwel but then look at my own child who infact needed to be there.
I see alot of poeple saying we are time wasting in A&E but is that really a main issue.
Also there is no minor injuries unit where we are that sees chidren so A&E was our only option.
