What could be improved
I have just found out that my Grandad was not on the waiting list for his
hip replacment, he saw the consultant over 3 months ago and we thought he
would of been getting the date to have the operation any day now. I am
absoulutley appauled by this as my grandad is in alot of pain, this is not
acceptable and he should of been helped by your nursing staff to give the
forms in to be put on the waiting list on the day when he saw the
consultant. I was told on the phone that it is the patients responibilty
to give the forms in, how can it be for an 80+ year old man who can not
walk very well and is partially deaf. please read this and make sure it
doesnt happen to anyone else
