Currently a inpatient on ward 47 after having a abscess removed as a type one diabetic patient the staff on this ward have no knowledge of my need I have a list off things the staff have done wrong or failed to do they speak to my wife with a tone in their voice when she raises any concerns towards my health it's absolutely shocking. I've been given glucose through a IV on top off meals I've eaten which has caused my blood sugars to rise the orderly did not clean my finger before taking my bloods until my wife informed them it's best to do so as I'd eaten. A nurse pulled my IV drip and walked off even though it was twisted around my canular that is in my arm. I keep raising my concerns about my insulin routine and no one understands a thing such a shame that I've just had surgery and feel the need to discharge myself as I feel being here is causing more harm than good.
"Very shocking treatment appalled"
