Anything else?
Daughter in law was booked for an induction on 12th August as she was 12 days overdue. She rang up in the morning and they told her it was ok for her to come in only to find that she ended up in a normal ward all day not the labour ward as there were no spaces. Induction never happened that day and my son had to leave his crying wife overnight because if she left she might lose her slot for her waters to be broken. 7 o'clock the following morning her waters were broken but due to fetal distress the baby excreted his first pooh which can be extremely dangerous and even fatal. Baby is being monitored and none of us know if the baby will be ok as she is still in labour. My son said he felt the staff treated him as if he was some sort of wife beater and should not have been there and now due to their delay baby may suffer. I am disgusted at the way they have been treated so far
