"Unprofessional"

About: Whipps Cross University Hospital / Trauma and orthopaedics

I had three broken bones after being hit by a motorbike .

The nurse wanted me to walk to the bathroom and wash.

I requested using a wet towel in bed and was unable to move. The nurse said "I have things to do" and was irritated that I was unable to get up.

I was the youngest in sicamore ward at 38. The ward had 84 and 90 year olds. At night there wasn't a single nurse present and it would get to me when I would hear patients asking for water or if they were sick. I used my Zimmer frame to hop over and move water closer or give a sick bowel to another when woken up by someone calling out.

This hospital also left my placenta inside me when I gave birth in 2008. Then told me they had lost my files.

And a few years ago they gave me the wrong medication for tuberculosis and called me a few weeks later to say I had been given the wrong medication.

I would never go back there .
