I found the standard of care in ward 5D absolutely disgusting...was transferred to this geriatric ward (I'm 26) as it was the only bed available on Friday...did not see a dr till Monday!
I felt like I was huffed at for ringing the buzzer, lack of communication is unreal and cannula was not replaced for over 12 hours leaving me with no medication/fluids whatsoever!
I like Whiston hospital, had great care from numerous other wards but this is by far the worst and yet it's for the most vulnerable patients.
I felt so sorry for the elderly ladies I shared a bay with, I wanted to take them home with me!
