The so-called short stay Ward(s) on the Fourth Floor of the main building suffer from the plethora of different Doctors [not Consultants] who "come and go" -or should I say stream in and out.
If one is told "this so-and Doctor" is in overall charge of one's case - do not necessarily
expect that to last more than one or two days , at best.
If the "official position" is that a
particular
Doctor REMAINS in overall charge , this is entirely notional.
This is the observation of experience of 9/10 + plus on such a "short stay" Ward.
Also expect , in very limited seating space, in 'nice and quiet (sic)' -out of the way facilities
Theatre Staff to use what few communal seats there are to come in their disposable gowns to
CATCH UP ON THEIR URGENT PERSONAL -or is that PROFESSIONAL
catch up ???? -
TEXTING , especially around lunchtime.
