What I liked
nothing , I was visiting my father when a genleman on his ward needed to be taken to the
bathroom nobody would help him, he was calling for a nurse, again all chatting about
the t.v from the night before, he then tried to go to the bathroom on his own and fell down
and smashed his head on the floor, only then did a nurse stop her chatting, but it was to late
his head was bleading, but they didn't care, we were the only people who came to his aid.
this is disgusting behavour.
What could be improved
absolutley everthing
you need to have someone incharge of every ward and someone who can be available
to answer question about treatment and other things instead of saying you need to make
a appointment with his doctor , so relatives can get some answer's , we never saw a matron
or a head nurse or sister the whole time my father was in there ( six weeks).
Anything else?
the nurses couldn't care less, it has nothing to do with the cut backs that every one is blaming
ALL the nures on my father's ward were chatting about the Xfactor and totally ignored my farther and other patients on his ward, he was never turned in his bed and now has very bad bed sores and now needs to be reamitted to the same hospital that gave them to him in the first place, it's our worse nightmere, we are petrified. you totally ignored all our requests for action
and done nothing and them left it too late and then the damage was done , now you want to
wash your hands.
"no words can summarise our experience it's beyond..."
