"You should be ashamed "

About: Royal Preston Hospital

My 18 year old brother has come into a and e department tonight (6th Feb) He's diabetic, his bloods are extremely high (27) and he can't stop being sick. He's on the verge of going into a diabetic coma, yet he's been told to take a seat and the wait time is 3 hours!!! Do you seriously expect him to go into a coma sat in the waiting room? He needs medication and fast! He is now being driven nearly an hour to our local hospital. You should be ashamed of yourself

Absolutely disgraceful
