I am discusted with the service on which you run..... my father was admitted on Monday night from a&e after spending 3hrs in there he finally got moved to CDU and then a ward on Tuesday night they rang to say yesterday that he was going home at 5pm ... 7.15 pm 7b rang to say he was still there 4+ hrs later after being told he was coming home he finally got home after 9pm would you really send a gentleman of 83 home in the dark and cold . There should be rules in place that no elderly person goes home after 6pm feeling very frustrated and angry that this can be done the directors would send there elderly parents home in the middle of the evening so why send others out .... You need to start looking at what time you send patients home especially when they live on there own !
