This dysfunctional ward I am located on doesn't have a communal lavatory.
So, when there aren't enough staff to man the whole ward, I suffered very much. I've even wet myself once.
They keep saying things will change, but "things" never do. Still no sign of a communal toilet being installed. Some days we didn't get access to fresh air at all. I've received other patients notes regularly, and other breaches of confidentiality.
We've got a new manager on our ward, the are trying to make things better, but they don't have enough time to do everything. The new manager is very caring and supportive, they mean well. I hope changes happen sooner rather than 'Rampton Time.'
I think we should have therapeutic meals with staff, canteen shuts very early and some of them don't eat, they are so busy. I've been given wrong tablets on some occasions. One member of staff told me not to mind and that we all make mistakes
"Rampton Time"
