It took me like 2 hours on some nights to get my morphine shot because of low staffing levels. I have to say though, the night staff were so much friendlier than the day ones.
I did have to wait til the Monday for my surgery though. I was originally meant to get it on the Sunday but I wasn't 'emergency' as such at that point.
