Current position. I’m sat in the waiting room of the fracture clinic at the William Harvey Hospital Ashord Kent.
It’s a path I don’t want to go down, but as you sit and wait many unseen things become seen. Anticipation of results in patients faces. Worry from partners or family members. Staff expressions and greetings to others.
Dull coloured walls, paperwork and files left outside consultation rooms. I’ve seen many a hospital in my time. In both good and bad light. This isn’t a place to start snapping away, but is a place where you can see things differently. Members of staff coming and going not knowing what they have seen, heard or even had to tell people. Good or bad news understand people emotions as they are given news.
Body language is probably a critical unseen image around here at the moment. Hiding emotions for fear of something else. Fear comes into it own whilst the country struggles to control the on going COVID-19 outbreak.
