"Father Still in ward 2"

About: South Tyneside District Hospital

My father is in ward 2 and has been there 3 weeks and has fell 15 times . He is very confused and not steady on his feet . He fell even though his room is next to the nurses station . He now has a massive bruise on his chest after a fall and no one knows how this has happened . Tonight he was left sitting in his own urine and towels were thrown in the floor around him because the nurses were busy seeing to someone else .

It is a disgrace . I would not recommend this hospital to anyone a s we asked for dad to be put somewhere were he would safe . However this has not proved to be the place
