i have noticed some nurses doing it here. it makes me really angry
I had an infection whilst in hospital, and I kept telling the nurses that my wrist was painful but they wouldn't look at it or let me talk to a doctor. Eventually after two weeks I showed a peer support worker and she nagged the nurses to look at my wrist. The nurses then told me off for talking to the support working and 'making them look bad'.
When they finally did look at it, they took me to a&e where I just narrowly avoided needing a skin graft.
