"I felt no bedside manner"

Way I was treated by staff on ward SAL at Lincoln county hospital.

they didn't seem to care, the lack of communication was dire, I had to have my gallbladder out and all the preparation of phone calls and from Langton ward stated firmly I was to stay admitted overnight due to me being without support or care at home as I live on my own and they ignored this.

I'm classed as a vulnerable adult with learning disabilities that was all ignored as well by certain staff.

I appreciate it's a busy ward but I think nurses forget that it may all be routine for them and done things a million times, but it's not for patients.

I think they can forget patients may need the bedside manner, explanations, the empathy and respect and care it's why a lot when into nursing in the first place.

we are human too and have emotions and stresses and aniexties as well as I'm sure they do.

I know staff are going through a lot it's all on the news but when dealing with patients you have to shut away all that and look after the patients and treat them with respect.

I ended up twice once in recovery and the other in Sal ward having a bad reaction and finally they said they would keep me in.

I actually had to in tears tell one nurse how they were making me feel.

I felt they were extremely pushy with me ordering me to do this and that which I did. I felt no bedside manner or respect and they ended up in front of me and others arguing with another staff member of staff, highly disrespectful, rude and bad mannered as well as unprofessional.
