I just spent five days in the hospital myself here in United States, With Covid and I can tell you that the doctors and nurses were treating me were Amazing. They care so much about me because of my Covid and extensive medical history. I really give them 2 thumbs way up and I really want to say thank you. I am at home right now recovering. Due to these wonderful people, I am alive today which I’m not supposed to be. I have a history dating back to 2005.
I just had an emergency surgery, and I was very well cared for. Doctors and nurses were extremely kind, the nurse even came in held my hand and rubbed my back❤
@@britishbobcat2098sorry to hear that hun.i myself live there ..people don't care about me either.i caught a bus today and didn't realize my bus transfer had expired. The bus driver yelled at me while I was looking for it and then kicked off my grand child and I.we walked a mile to a gas station only to have them say, no tickets here. 😮 ended up taking a taxi the other 2 miles. Just retired to this mess
Temperature control is a must in any hospital anywhere. The drugs and electronics don't fare any better than the patients in uncomfortable temps, which are going to be your new normal there.
That's exactly what I was thinking. It's strange that they don't have air conditioning and if it was down they like really rushed to get that stuff fixed in hospitals at least here in the states they do anyway
Bed shortages. I remember this hospital opening and went on to work there. It opened with 850 beds now down to 350. It has lost 500 beds and yet the population has exploded. These non medical managers have all the power but no knowledge. Bring back the super Matron to sort out the clincal needs and bed support needed for each hospital.
The one bad thing about socialized medicine. But I can tell you of a lot of Americans that would seriously kill for it, and need it desperately. When my appendix ruptured it cost me over $60,000
They don't have air conditioning because it's usually not necessary. Restaurants, hotels, office buildings, cars, etc do not have it....this had to be a crazy heat wave.
I am Australian and I agree with you however I would presume it’s likely lots of major buildings in the uk don’t have air conditioning for cooling as we do at home meaning that 29.6 without the ability to turn on an aircon would be an issue without the ability to open a window such as a you would find in a hospital. David young 38 Brisbane Australia
My thoughts would be that all major buildings would all be central heated for the cold winters but may not be air conditioned such as you would need here in Australia or say Florida as normally their summers aren’t warm enough to be that bad - or they used to not be that bad to need aircon to cool. I’ve never lived in the uk or worked in a uk hospital so I stand to be corrected if needed .
These hard working people need some air-conditioners! These are dangerous working conditions considering how busy they are. They shouldn't have to suffer as they work so hard to help others.
I find it interesting how people's perception of pain varies so vastly! I had a full-blown CVA a few months ago. I never had pain. I just knew things were not right. I live by myself and took it upon myself to sort it out. No free ambulance here in the United States. By the time the ambulance got here, I couldn't even enunciate to explain to them what had happened, got on the ambulance with no shoes, no contact lenses. I guess I saved my own life!
It's Barnsley in the north east of England. Summer temps are top 20°s low 30°s. Try living in Australia, where summer temps are above 40°C. You need aircon on those days. I was born in Barnsley, now live in Western Australia.
The one reason why I would be unable to live in the United Kingdom: no air conditioning. I desperately need air conditioning to manage every summer. We get hot summers with lots of humidity in Minnesota, but I have A/C to help me cope with it. I don't know how you all cope with the heat and no a/c.
It’s only 84 degrees F. and they’re uncomfortable. I’m glad they aren’t working in south Texas USA. With climate change the UK is going to have to install central air conditioning in hospitals.
@@danielledewitt1 87 degrees in a hospital is ridiculous. Saying UK is not hot is like saying UK isn't cold. There are times when you need a cool work environment or a heated one, and people shouldn't be forced to suffer in their old age.
Watching these episodes, I’m so grateful for our healthcare in America. It isn’t perfect but we don’t sit in the waiting room for hours on end waiting for care. And hospitals have central air con and heat whether they’re located in cooler or hotter climates. The downside to our system is that, depending on your health insurance, it could be costly for treatment. Lucky for me I don’t pay to see my primary doctor and specialists are $10.00USD. Hospital stays (unlimited days) are $0 cost as well as whatever treatments I may have whilst hospitalized. I’m blessed more than most and it’s not lost on me. 😉👍🏻
In my area of Florida, it depends on how bad your condition that you are being seen for is how fast AND whether or not you get a room. (I typically only get admitted into the hospital for CIDP -chronic inflammatory demylanating polyneuropathy- exacerbation episodes but most of the er staff are aware of me and it -the CIDP exacerbation episodes- and I prefer to wait in the corner of the er waiting room) and I typically get a bed up on a floor before midnight the same day so that the neurologist who follows me has comfort in knowing that there are nurses who know how to infuse IVIG. However, most of the nurses in most of the hospital know that I have CIDP, know that I know how to run (operate) the IV pump even though I typically bring my own as they seem to be having pump shortages (I have the same IV pump) and know that I independently infuse my maintenance dosing IVIG and know that I am proficient in the infusion protocol for acute dosing of IVIG. Also, as I have a port placed, they frequently allow me to independently access myself as they know that I'm aware of the risks of infections and that it would be me to go through the treatment process should I get an infection from not cleaning the site properly. Although, they do think that I'm a touch neurotic about cleanliness of my prep surface and cleaning the site before sticking myself to access. However, they are also aware of the fact that because of how neurotic I am about cleanliness and sterile procedure for accessing my port, I haven't had a single infection related to the access of my port (I have had two blood infections from a UTI backing up into my kidneys and into the bloodstream- once shortly before having my port placed in 2018 and another in 2022).
In Georgia you will definitely be sitting in the waiting area for sometimes 4 hours before you are even properly triaged if you aren't in cardiac arrest or not brought in by ambulance.
30 degrees Celsius is only like 85 degrees Fahrenheit!!! In the summer here which lasts at least 5 months, most days are upper 90’s to 110 tho since Southern California is a very dry desert and we only have two seasons, a very mild winter and a very hot dry summer with humidity usually from 5-15%, stop whining! 85 degrees Fahrenheit is gorgeous!!! Enjoy!
Unless it’s 85° with humidity…which the UK has. Try 85° on the Atlantic coast, but not at the beach, in order to get an idea of what they were going through.
Do they not have air conditioning in hospitals in England? I know homes don't have AC. In America, EVERY HOSPITAL AND BUSINESS has air conditioning. Gee Whiz.
It's not about being a "sook". You literally can't control the genetics you're born with and a lot of people are heat intolerant. Many can die from heatstroke. Same risks in cold temperatures.
@@rhiannon14982not true heat is far more dangerous than cold and you’re right it can be genetics it can also be certain medications that cause heat intolerance

I can't believe they don't have air-conditioning .
Broken? But I can't see an emergency room without air-conditioning, they have way too many elderly and young.
Air con isn’t common in uk. We don’t really need it. It’s very rare it gets hot in uk.
they dont in the uk

Keep up the good work! Thank you very much. 😊
I’m surprised the emergency department is air conditioned
They don''t have AC in the hospitals over there? The heat would make me feel worse than what I went for!!!!
Fantastic TV show
29*6 degrees is the beginning of Australian summer, we complain when it’s closer to 40.

at least.... im in Cairns xxx

Agreed they need at least those cold fans
It’s hard to tape IV tubing to sweaty arms. They need to set blocks of ice in front of the large fans.
“It’s like champagne.” 😂😂😂😂❤️❤️❤️❤️
29 degrees is hot 😂😂 lmao come to Australia
Its all about the money

I hope the air conditioning gets fixed for everyone in the hospital.
We start mentioning that it's a hot day when it's +35° in the shade. South Africa 😅
OMG! Please get these doctors, nurses, and patients air conditioners it's 2023 for heaven's sake. There are some great window units available.
Right? I know the temps are cooler in the UK but AC should still be standard in at least hospitals 😮

Stroke patients are treated very here in the United States given specific medication to reverse it…

It’s not usually hot there
@@strugglingcollegestudent even if it's not hot, I'm sure it gets warm which will make the hospital warm and probably very stuffy
Aircon 😮
Why is that guy wearing a sweater ??? There's a heat wave !!
Why are these patients not in resus???
It’s only 84 degrees F. and they’re uncomfortable. I’m glad they aren’t working in south Texas USA.

Uk has higher humidity than your neck of the woods. Even tourists to Uk find the heat hard to take bc of the humidity.
No AC? 😮
No AC??? Dang! Feel bad for the sick patients. I’d be sicker than sick in that heat.
Right? I've spent lots of times in hospitals unfortunately and I usually bring a little portable fan with me to clip on the bed rail
Love jokes
Arizona...cold hospitals
What a state the mother is
why havnt they got aircondionaning
This is the uk, wedon’t often get hot weather.
NOT SCRATCH, IT"S A BLOODY BIG STING.
No air conditioning? That's not healthy!

Many in the states have NO medical care.
Where do you live? Here in PA we do wait up to and over 4 hrs. at ER.
In Georgia you will definitely be sitting in the waiting area for sometimes 4 hours before you are even properly triaged if you aren't in cardiac arrest or not brought in by ambulance.
I've never heard of a hospital that didn't have air conditioning..
Same
In Adelaide Australia today its 37.c so dont complain 😒🤣
Well we in the uk are not used to it.

Same here.🎄☃️
