Ward 14

Story from nhs.uk

"Ward 14"

The ward is a disgrace, one of my parents was admitted, they were there 6 days without a shower or bath, left with legs on floor in the most uncomfortable seat allowing her ankles to swell, when a friend visited who was a Sister in the QE she was appalled that no one was encouraging her to walk every 2 hours... no one helped her shower or bath... no one treated her dry skin on her legs or noticed her swollen ankles...... I left so upset after the visit!
