I was in Leahy Clinic in Burlington, MA. When I didn't get lunch because I forgot to call, they called me and I could order whatever I wanted. It was like a restaurant. I was amazed at it.
Do we pay for it though in wait times I have often wondered? Coming from the province that housed the father of Medicare in Canada, Saskatchewan, (Tommy Douglas being the "Father") I do appreciate that we leave the doctors office, hospital etc without having to stop by accounting or having to watch the mail, I also know there are serious issues when we can sit in our ER waiting for 3 hours to be seen
@@dellahicks7231 oh we can sit that long here in the US as well. I went in with my foot cut wide open wrapped in a bloody wash cloth and they stuck me in the waiting room 🤣they did change my wash cloth because mine was soaked through so they gave me a new clean one before pushing my wheel chair out in the hall. I just think thank goodness it wasn’t an artery I had cut.
“Do you want a cup of tea?” ! I’m in the wrong country! ( U.S.A.). We NEVER hear that in our E.R.’s.( nor anything like it) The British have more civilized moments than we Americans. You are awesome!

Quite a few times when I've been in the E.R. (multiple chronic conditions), I've been offered food & drink, especially during meal times. As long as your doctor says it's okay, they'll give you sandwiches, fruit, chips, salads, etc and of course drinks, including but not limited to water, fruit juice, milk, coffee and/or tea, (depending on the hospital, even soda!). If they don't directly ask if you want anything, you can always ask. Just keep in mind that there are fewer volunteers helping out in most American hospitals, especially since Covid, and medical needs will always be a higher priority than just comfort items and they are overworked and extremely stressed, so if they don't bring it within 20 minutes, you should ask about it.
It also greatly varies from hospital to hospital and the bigger (and busier) they are, the more likely they are to not get an opportunity to bring you something or that they might be called to attend to a medical situation and accidentally forget. Also and this is a big one, at least around here; the non-profit ones are generally more friendly and accommodating than the for-profit ones. I can't say that that's the case everywhere and that there aren't exceptions, but at least around here, it's very strongly the case that the for-profit ones are more understaffed and the staff they do have are often a little snobbier.
I do not think that any hospital should be allowed to keep taking in more and more people when they are starting to overflow into the hallways. Because the hallways are not safe from germs and very loud.
I had knee surgery here in the U.S. and when they woke me up from the anesthesia, they kept asking me to wiggle my toes. I was SO grouchy, I was like "LEAVE ME ALONE "! I just wanted to sleep!
Time stamp around 8:11 in….chap gives us all the middle-finger 😂! He slipped one in on any ungrateful ex-patients! Seriously though, what great staff and doctors! Kudos! 👍🏻🌻❤
Always love Bonitta. And think the tea bit isn't so remarkable as non-British think - it's a cultural thing, believing tea makes things better. However, as a Canadian with a public health care system, I think the British overuse emergency (more expensive) services like ambulance and casualty wards - there's taxis and general doctors and local clinics for 'sore ankles.'
While we don't pay for hospital nor doctors visits etc., in Saskatchewan we do pay for ambulance service, unless you have private Healthcare coverage, or are receiving benefits like social assistance. Ambulance service is a privately owned business in our province. I know our family will rarely call an ambulance, it is just far too expensive, unless we feel it is life threatening, by vehicle we go!
It may be a strange concept for you but if you hurt your foot or leg, you shouldn't walk or drive 🤷. GPs usually work for a few hours a day, so when they're not there, you obviously go to an emergency unless it can wait for the next day, which majority of injuries and pains can't.
Is a sister a nurse practitioner or just a Rn. I'm just curious 🤔. I love Nurse Jane she has an awesome personality, and she makes people feel comfortable. She does so much. I wish that we had her in the hospital where I work. She is just an amazing person. Lily was a very cutie, and her twin as well.❤️❤️
Now a patient is being asked if they want something to eat and drink‼️ I’m impressed!

My main thought watching this was how lucky these people are to be to go to hospital and not to have to worry about being bankrupted by the visit.
I noticed the patients are more relaxed and even in good cheer when you don't have to worry about the bill.

I would love to have a pal like Jane in my life. She's a gem.
I love how the English treat people… we could learn a bit from them.
I was just thinking the same thing
SO sad…..SOOOO TRUE 👍🏻🤦🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️
We sure could .✌️💌
I work at this hospital and it is the nicest hospital I’ve ever worked in in 37 years service . The best patients and staff, it’s a family ❤
16:00 dude he calculates when the med will take effect
I agree with that treatment
9 year old Lily is delightful and the mom didn't feel the need to talk over her!!! After all, the doctor was talking to the girl!!!

Isn't that the truth.
We need more Janes in this world! What a doll!
Having 30 junior doctors on a shift is fantastic. In South Africa you have about 4 for the same size emergency unit and much less nursing staff.

Exactly I've autism and bod don't go to a+e any more

I was a PACU ( recovery room) RN for many years, many patients are grouchy. Hope you had a great recovery.

Did that guy with deep vein thrombosis say he took his dog's medication for pain relief??

Jane is not a nurse or NP. She’s an unpaid volunteer who brings cheer, hugs, tea and toast, plus jokes for one and all. AMAZING!
Thank you for saving lives 🙏
Bread and water is beautiful.
I love this show!
I love these shows
Didn’t anyone show that gut how to use these crutches? And noone set them to the right length... that way he will hurt bis back and shoulders...
Nurse Wainwright looks like Nicole Kidman.
I want a cherry bakewell.
Lily and Alana😍😍
Can you have a brain bleed without an injury?
Geoffrey rules.
This must be old, since no one is wearing face diapers...
