After suffering major life threatening 'care' previously at this hospital my mother had to go from her nursing home onto hexworthy ward for a week. She has just returned to her nursing home and the care she has received on this ward is diabolical! She is completely immobile yet had 4 hourly turns, the result of which is her backside is in a disgusting state, her skin is excoriated to the point it is bleeding and almost to the hone. Absolutely disgusted and will be making a formal complaint after writing this review. I dread my mother or anyone having to go into this place, I've experienced very little compassion or empathy throughout this horrific time. Would not recommended at all.
