Caring for my neighbour

Hello Joan
How are things today with your neighbour and has she got any care going in yet? I haven't been able to get on line until this evening and was wondering how your day has gone.
Did the hospital find out what was the matter with her and hope you have managed to find out who you should speak to. It's certainly disgraceful what some hospital staff try to get away with. Have you heard from your neighbour's relatives yet?
It's not a good situation to find yourself in and hope you get some answers soon.

Hi Joan
You have looked after this lady for a long time. I'm sure you must make her life different as well.
Shame though her family cannot visit.
Love Trish x0 -

Whatever you send to anyone, make sure that you also let the Chair of the NHS Health Trust have a copy. They oversee the running of the hospital and can take action in cases like this.

Thank you for the information, Joseph. How do you know all these things :?:0 -
Hi Elna, Joy, Joan, and Trisher
Another awful thing which happened was that they have sent her out with a catheter in place, and gave her some extra replacement ones. When she tried to use one, it wouldn't work, and later the district nurse said she had been given ones for a man :!: :shock: :shock:
There are also night ones and day ones, and the hospital nurse had marked every single packet the wrong way round :!: :shock: :shock: The district nurse just kept saying,' Idiot :!: Idiot :!: ' over and over again when she saw what the hospital nurse had done.
Bearing in mind that my friend is 86, and has possible kidney failure, it is pretty disgusting :!: :shock:
She now has to wait to go for a CT scan, and other tests. They said she would hear in the post within the next month. :!: But why couldn't they do these tests when she was in hospital last week :?: :?: That's too easy :!: They have to make it difficult :!:0
