therock Supersonic September 21, 2023 Author Share September 21, 2023 (edited) Ok, I was reading about SKH and it hit home today when I went to the Children's Emergency at NUH this evening. Basically, my baby has been having cough and and fever since Sunday. Saw polyclinic Monday and was told to go there is it's worse after five days.. So we join the hordes, and yes, it was a huge crowd.. like no seats... waiting time for adults was 6 hours, 3 for kids. They did the oxygen saturation and it was low - 86-89%, so that kind of moved me up. Due to the sats, we went in, got seen, then went for blood tests and X Rays, and I then waited at the adult side, where the X Ray was. Again, those who have been there for a while are not exactly what I would call life threatening. A doctor in uniform was also amongst the crowd, and so were a few staff. To cut a long story short, my kid had some bronchiolitis, and was given some ventolin, and the usual fever meds. They actually don't encourage cough meds which suppress cough - cough or vomit out the phlegm they say.. they offered some antibiotics but the senior doctor said it's more to ease parents' minds than a real need as it was most likely viral. I spent about 3.5 hours there, from registration to discharge. I'm sure there are patients I did't overhear with more serious conditions, but my impression was that the serious ones did get seen in due course, despite the crazy crowds.. Just my 2c worth.
