"No DVT socks despite large abscess"

About: Medway Maritime Hospital / General surgery

(as a relative),

My partner was in this ward which was dirty and I thought staff were rude and off hand! I was shocked that my husband had been left in bed for two days with no dvt socks despite having a large abscess and been on a flight recently too! He also waited over 24 hours for an emergency operation!
