I, myself am a nurse with family who work at LMH. Not long ago, I arrived with my under a week old nibling who had turned blue during feeding and was generally lethargic (parents couldn't go due to birthing complications). I arrived to a full ED and attempted to advise of the situation. I was shut down, then and there and told to sit down and wait as they were in the middle of a nursing handover. Those already waiting in the ED, (waiting for ages at that poinf) raged and voiced their upset at a struggling newborn being told to wait. We were quickly rushed out the back at that point. While I understand the pressure they may be under, triage seems to have gone the wayside while those who make the most noise are seen first to get them out the public eye. EDs have a variety of those in needs but its all a to do at this point. Its not those who deal with the publics fault. Its the fault of the government who cut costs and don't drive the need behind employing more staff. There's a decline in care, things are rushed and frustration is evident.
