in and out


Barrie was in a tizz last night having to go to A&E to get his catheter changed, the old one got blocked.
I arrived at St.Thomas's 17.15 then waited for a couple of hours then got transferred to Guys where after an other wait of an hour or so I
had the item changed buy an excellent Dr. Willbe, nearly an appropriate name ! Once again we see the pressure which the NHS is under and how they are understaffed.
One has to go to 1 hospital to get booked into another as Guy's has no A&E dept and St. Thomas's no urological dept. Although Barrie knew this he was unable to go directly to Guys as he needed a referral from St. Thomas's in order to be admitted. Ridiculous .
