Original feedback for

Suffolk out of hours


As Parish Nurse with a Palliative Care client

I needed to contact out of hours service on 2 consecutive nights and had to wait for up to 3 hours for community nurse and GP visits for pain relief for an end of life patient. I was appalled to realise that there were only 1 pair of nurses on duty for the whole of Suffolk o the first night, and only 1 doctor on duty each night.
