My grandson was admitted to the unit and I have only praise for the standard of care he recieved. Thank you to all staff.
However, while there, another child's treatment was upsetting. The child's care at home was giving health professionals cause for concern. Rightly this was being addressed but this was done in the open ward area where all the other patients and their families could hear every word that was said. One interview was particularly heated and upsetting. Can I suggest that, where there are delicate issues being discussed that this be done in privacy to protect the patient's right to confidentiality and dignity.
