Anything else?
Where to start. My mother was admitted to Tameside for the third time this year, for the same issue. She was passed to the MAAU dept where she and other patents were ignored, spoken rudely to and generally made to feel as though they were an inconvenience. I heard complaint at least 5 times in 4 hours of how overworked the staff were, yet so much time was spent complaining there was no wonder they didn't have time to carry out their work. For a hospital under investigation for poor performance I felt the attitude of nursing staff was a disgrace. This is in addition to the fact that my mother has been admitted for an issue that has been ongoing for nine months and nobody seems interested in getting to the bottom of the problem. There is far too much time spent boxing people into 'Pathways' and not enough spent on individual patient care.
