My husband was taken to Derriford in late dec to A&E. Had an X-Ray on his left leg upper thigh and was admitted to a ward off A&E. He stayed for 3 days and then he came home. He hadnt had his bowels opened for 4 days and was being sick. The lady who gave out the meals told the staff he wasnt eating or drinking properly. They didnt give him any sickness pills or stuff to make him go to the toilet. So consequently in the early hours he was sick all over the bed. I had to strip the bedand turn the mattress on my own. I am 71 years old so not an easy task. I called in my G-P the next day who is excellent. He gave me all the things I needed, he also arrangedf or a Physio to come to our house. Her name is Michelle Langrishe who was a big help getting him back on his feet again. She works for Plymouth Community Healthcare at Cumberland Centre Devonport. My Dr address is Budshead Health Centre Whitleigh
