"Why was my son sent to rehab from detox?"

About: Nottinghamshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust / The Woodlands (inpatient unit for substance misuse)

(as a relative),

My son went in for detox. Went to visit him and was not happy with how he looked. He had developed jaundice of which he has never had before. After detox also to have to sit in the foyer to be with him before he went to rehab in wales was not very private.

The next question why was he sent to rehab as when he went there only for one and half days before he was taken to hospital? My son died from vices alcoholic liver disease why was he not sent to hospital in Nottingham? None of his family were able to see him as it took four and half hours to get there as we live in Leicester. He died without his family being there alone as a pensioners was not able due to cost of travel to see him more often. To hear on the train traveling there that he had passed away was devastating I do not hold the ysbys hospital gwenned wales responsible for anything but I do want answer as to why he was sent to rehab from woodlands detox hospital.
