    how good are NSW hospitals (not)

    Hi all I had wiper snipper acco yesterday a rock flew up and bit me on the eye woke up 3am this morning and my eye was the size of a tennis ball at 4am went to Mt Druitt hospital where I waited for 4 hours with 3 other people

    Apparently they where to busy mmmmmmm left there went to westmead where I was seen to straight away buy this stage it was 10am in the morning

    The other 2 gents seem to have appendicitis and what seemed to be a broken arm they where not seen to either

    How crap are our hospital and why don’t private hospitals have emergencies rooms where you be seen to with your health care fund RRRRRR

    If you have an eye injury, there are only two (maybe three) public hospitals to go to: (1) Sydney Eye Hospital in Macquarie St (2) Westmead and, maybe (3) Liverpool.

    I went to Westmead late one evening 4 years ago - after attending Nepean, being delayed and eventually told, get thee straight to Westmead - where I was seen very quickly, admitted, and was operated on at 8am.

    In May, I went to Sydney Eye Hospital and was seen and admitted quickly. I was not operated on that evening as another bloke had been hit across the eye with a snapped winch cable which broke his eye socket. He was seen to first.

    Hmm, here's a Philosophical Question to ponder. If you went to the Sydney Eye Hospital and they COULDN'T see you, would you even want to be treated there?

    Glad your ok...

    But why would you operate one without eye protection? Or at least Sunnies...

    This town is so safety focused that you often see people mowing lawns in their PPE the safety message is strong in Whyalla...

    Seriously!
