Failings on discharge

"Failings on discharge"

About: Queen Elizabeth University Hospital Glasgow / General medicine (Wards 5d)

(as a carer),

My Dad was discharged last night from Ward 6B very unsteady on his feet and delirious - I would have liked to see the results of the 4AT test before departure - if I had seen him in the ward I wouldn’t have brought him home! He arrived in reception unsteady on his feet and very confused and emotional. My sister had to stay overnight and I relieved her this morning - now waiting on emergency GP coming to see him as his head pain is intense and he is in a very confused state.

Hello J-g20,

I am sorry to read of your Dad's recent experience and that he has been unwell. You have raised some concerns that we would welcome the opportunity to look into in more detail for you both. Can you please contact me at Rachel.pyle@ggc.scot.nhs.uk with your contact details and your father's date of birth and CHI Number (if you have it to hand), as this will help us to investigate for you.

Very best wishes,

Rachel
