"staff"

Anything else?

very nauseous after op - but staff kept telling me I'd had drugs to stop this - made to feel as if I was too much trouble to them - very disorientated as coming round from aneasthetic - managed to sit up a bit and was sick on the bed, myself and the floor - son was present and he pressed the bell for a nurse and then tried to help me - nurse arrived at least 5 minutes later and just stood at the door asking what was wrong - son explained and she did get a bowl - held it out across me in the bed for him to put the dirty tissues in and then went away - totally disinterested in me! before he left for the evening my son tried to make a complaint about this and was told that 'she's had the anti-sickness drugs, she shouldn't have been sick' - not exactly professional! Later that evening I told this same nurse that I was in some pain - again she was off-hand and dismissive - I'd apparently had an injection at the end of the op and 'shouldn't be in any pain' - this was the only time I've ever been in hospital apart from when I had my children and I sincerely hope I never have to have any sort of treatment ever again - is it too much to ask that a nurse has some sort of inter-personnel skills?
