Can anyone please try and explain how a 42 year old stroke victim be left without food for 26 days on a hospital ward? After 26 days, he died!
I have also seen this type of negligence and neglect with my own eyes.
Nurses? I would not trust them to care for a pet, let alone a member of my family.
If a member of your family needs to stay in an NHS hospital. Make sure you arrange time off work and go in and look after them yourself. Otherwise you have no idea what might happen.
Genralise? Hmmmm well maybe. But then I keep hearing of cases like this and everytime I have been around hospitals (lots as I had a mother with Cancer and a father having a bypass) I see the very samething with my own eyes. Had I not interviend and fed my mother twice a day should would have been in real trouble. Where were the Nurses? Sitting in the office chatting most of the time.
NOT THE NORM??? I disagree. It may not be yet, but its not far off.
What a lot of nonsense. Who within a hospital as a duty of care to patients if it’s not the nurses? Having all the excuses in the world does not help the poor patient lying there depending on these people for life. CRAZY!!!
