Anything else?
My brother was nursed at RBH over the new year, at end Stage of life, he did make it home with good support for the last 3 weeks of his life. The care he received was on the whole good, but one or two staff let him down, I am an ex nurse myself and I am maybe more "picky" than most. Depending on the staffing we knew if he was going to be well looked after, or left alone. The palliative care team, social worked and OT were very helpful, bit the nursing staff weren't always. There were sometimes huge barriers because the nurses often had very poor English language.
