"Trying to get orthopaedic treatment"

About: Princess Royal University Hospital / Trauma and orthopaedics

My mother was admitted Sunday after breaking her hip and femur, she also suffers with Parkinson’s disease. Is he has received brilliant care from the nursing staff but there has been a total lack of communiication from and between the consultants. She has been left without a dr reviewing her for well over 24 hours, she had the break on Sunday, it is now gone 5 on Friday and she is still awaiting the op. We have been chasing the drs all day but nobody has been. It is very unsettling and disappointing that we have had no contact with any senior drs in over 36 hours. I just hope she doesn’t deteriorate over the weekend

I am sorry to hear about the difficulties that you have been having. I do hope that you have managed to sort things out for your mother. I realise that my response is a little late to help on this occasion.

Please accept my apologies for not responding sooner.
