My wife age 65 suffering severe abdominal pain was admitted to hospital at 6.15 pm in early December after some excellent care from the nurses.
At 1am the next morning I was told to go home as my wife would be kept in for further investigation, at 2:30 am I had a phone call from my wife to pick her up as the registrar discharged her.
Note my wife had not slept for 24 hours because of the pain or eaten for 2 days. Is this fair?
