Hurrah for the NHS
My Mum has been in Peterborough hospital for barely a week and already they've forgotten her Parkinson's medication, twice, and allowed her to get into a situation where she could and did fall over, twice.
It is kind of ironic that after doing their utmost to keep her alive in the last few months (against both hers and her family's wishes) the NHS now seems bent on doing her in.
It feels like they are trying to tick a few boxes such as washing (check), walk to the loo (check) etc so they can get rid because she's bed blocking. 'Hello! You kept her alive when nature was trying desperately to end her suffering."
It is a horrid hospital - grubby, shabby, rigid, oppressive and understaffed - it's surprising anyone gets well. The sooner we can get her out of there the better. She's only on the first floor I might take a rope next time I visit and break her out.
