My mum was in the hospital for two weeks. For eight days she wasn't helped to shower leaving her dirty. She was left waiting when she needed the toilet. Handled roughly when she messed the bed. We felt she was left in a corner and ignored because she is old. There was no joined up thinking with care and attempting to find out what was happening at a distance was difficult, and you felt dismissed.
