Im writing about my fathers care. Hes a cancer patient who needs alot of care. He needs 2 people to get him out of bed to take him to the bathroom etc. My mother is a retired nurse so stays with him during the day. The doctors are great. Some of the nurses are very professional.. but unfortunately not all of the nurses are very attentive. A while back they ignored my fathers bell and he fell and hit his head on the floor. Now.. in his current stay .. he is needing more help and they take longer and longer to help him. At times because they are on their cell phones. If they were quicker they wouldnt have a mess to clean up but they take so long he has either wet or soiled himself by the time they get there. I work in a hospital where i live and this would not be tolerated. You are in the patient care profession. The patient should come first. Its different if you are busy. We get that. They sometimes forget that some day it could be them or a family member in this position. Would they want themselves or a family member to be the one with a head injury or soiled clothing and having to spend time in it until someone finally answers the call bell. I am frustrated as i am far away and cant help my mother. I just hope that someone there reads this and possibly reignites the fire of passion for being caregivers so that no one else has to go through this type of issue.My father was always a hardworking man who treated people with dignity and respect... i dont think its too much to ask that on his final days on this earth that he be treated with dignity and respect as well. I mean it just common sense.
I was in Hospital from Thursday to Sunday. I would like to thank the nurses for the care given. Thank you!
I am having difficulty in contacting the hospital to give tribute for a memorial.What can I do?
