It's as I start writing this e-mail 23:48. I'm quite unwell in a fair amount of pain and have seemingly no chance of sleep. The main light in the ward is still brightly on I could be sunbathing it's that bright! There is also a large amount of noise from patients who are clearly agitated and confused. I appreciate the difficulties of an overburdened system but these patients would be better suited to a ward more equipped for their needs. Is it really necessary for the nurses to talk full volume at now 23:54. I think sleep should be valued higher. Perhaps if people were allowed to sleep then they might even get better quicker!
"Bad night experience."
