Anything else?
My sister was admitted for a uti she was borded on two wards . ward 18 and ward 6 these wards were exceptional they had her walking, showered her regularly and cured her uti. she was then warded on to the rehab ward and things went downhill she wasn't showered for a week and got another uti and became confused the physio took her into the gym and asked her to stand up she refused as she was confused and the physio refused to treat her as she had refused to stand up. She hurt her toe and we asked the staff to look at it they didn't for a week and her toe got worse. she wasn't showered regularly so I took some senset skin cleansing foam in and washed her bottom regularly to stop anymore uti;s. I was disgusted with the care in the rehab ward, I have met other ex-patients who went in walking but came out not walking
