"No care or compassion"

About: Croydon University Hospital / General medicine Croydon University Hospital General medicine CR7 7YE

Posted by eridanusyj75 (as the patient), 2 weeks ago

In November 2019 I was admitted to A and E and had the misfortune to be put on Purley 1 ward. Where I was treated very badly, I witnessed terrible mistreatment towards other patients on this ward and who were given no care or compassion.
There are no bathroom facilities on this ward which in 2019 is a real disgrace.
