Poor communication and conflicting advice

Posted By Oscar03

"Poor communication and conflicting advice"

About: Dumfries & Galloway Royal Infirmary / Outpatient Services

(as a relative),

Being a PEG patient I was admitted for a PEG replacement, on admission nursing staff were unaware of my primary diagnosis and reason for the PEG Going by my records they advised regarding a diagnosis I do not have. 

No handover was given to the Nutricia nurse and I was only made aware of aftercare needs when I contacted the Nutricia nurse for advice. 
I have concerns regarding communication, lack of follow up advice and the content of my patient records with some crucial information having not been documented and some that is inaccurate. 

I would appreciate if this could be followed up and amendments made to ensure my safety if an emergency situation should occur.
