Experience reflects well on health service

I was intrigued to read MEP Luke ‘Ming’ Flanagan’s account of his recent experience of the emergency department when taking his seven week old child. Mr Flanagan likened it to a “ war zone hospital”.

The basic facts of the story are this:

Mr Flanagan and child arrive at A&E and are seen by a nurse within an hour and two hours later by a doctor. They were then discharged after nothing was found wrong with the child.
