It’s over a month since I had my meeting with a clinician
from Accident and Emergency at St. peter’s hospital, Chertsey to discuss my
queries about how it was that they sent me home with a dislocated fractured
ankle.
It took over a year to get that meeting and they were
supposed to write to me and send a copy of the recording of the meeting in two
weeks. They haven’t, so here is my letter to ‘Patient Experience’ (all names
removed by me):

Dear
Sirs,
Re:
complaint A and E 27/8/12
I
attended a meeting with xxxxxxxx of Accident and Emergency on 11/9/13 to deal
with queries I had arising from his report into Accident and Emergency’s gross
negligence.
I
was told that I would receive a letter, a recording of the meeting and
information about making a complaint to the Parliamentary Ombudsman within 2
weeks.
It
is now 3 weeks – nothing.
It
took 6 months to get that meeting and it is now 13 months since A and E failed
to treat my broken ankle. While I am getting accustomed to these delays, every
time the Hospital fails to do what it promises I get more determined than ever
to expose and publicise what has been going on.
I’m
waiting.
Yours

ReplyDeleteI completely agree with you anonymous, I'll do a Blog about the people who have contacted me since I started all this - what they said and how they felt about complaining. That's all confidential of course, that's how it works on this site.
