I found that I could not get anyone to answer the phone on the ward reception desk, I was totally kept in the dark about my fathers condition , he came home with the same complaint he went in with, his preventative inhaler had not been given to him during his stay , he was then returned home but to the wrong address and when he did arrive home he was on a stretcher his feet was bleeding .I could give you the same advice as this hospital -elderly put them in nursing care has they are just a statistic and their views and the families wishes are meaningless- so keep them in for 30 days and then demand that the family place them in nursing care
