"tird ward move to suit the hospital not the..."

About: Royal Blackburn Hospital

My 80 year old mum has been moved three times to different wards and it has all but been said to make room for other patients. The final move is to get her ready for discharge - although there is a total lack of care available in the borough available to meet her needs.

She is just a number to admin - the latest move is at the disapproval of nursing staff who have been amazing
