"I felt I did not get the same care as other patients"

About: Royal Oldham Hospital / Maternity

(as the patient),

I felt just because I was moving around after 2 days and not staying in bed I did not get the same care as other patients after my c-section. I had to wait an hour for meds after being told 10 mins. I struggled feeding my son getting up and down but felt no choice, while someone else who refused to move got their own room. What a joke. I had to make my own breakfast brews in the kitchen but those that won't move get waited on.
