I need closure

Good morning from a sunny UK I've been dwelling on a bad occurrence when I was first in hospital Within 24 hours my brain cleared. I found the ward I was in was pleasant I'd lost my inhaler and was promised another one This did not happen. I was becoming very ill again. An Orderly wagged her finger in my face and told me I was stressing her out. I can look after myself so I replied "do that again I'll bite your finger off" I felt like kicking her ample backside too. I wouldn't let her take my sats but then she asked if she could check my blood sugar. She scratched my finger so spitefully it bled hard She said I didn't need an inhaler as I was on oxygen. I told her that did not open my airways. I also called her a silly cow At 7AM I asked if I could call my husband. She buzzed around me saying it was too early to call someone. I told her to buzz off. There is much more to this but I still find it distressing. The son of a 90 year old lady complained about her. I have not put in a formal complaint yet.

I would hate to be at the mercy of those animals in the hospitals there. You see, this is what I was talking about with my Auntie all alone up there in that flat in London with those animals slowly killing her. I am sorry that happened to you..they get away with murder these days over there. Would a complaint do any good though?

Put in a complaint, dear lady. This will not be her last go around, and if you can file a complaint without harming yourself, please do it. But make sure to tell them you threatened to bite her finger off: that’s just funny.

The state of public hospitals in my country is really bad. Recently, my grandma was admitted to the hospital. She usually wears a diaper. When we went to visit her in the afternoon, it appeared as if they didn't check on her throughout the day as she was soaked in urine

There are all kinds working in hospitals and not all of them good. I feel sorry for most medical personnel though, they are stretched beyond belief sometimes, not that that makes up for poor or abusive care.

@gilljane She ought not to be working with sick, worried, vulnerable people.

I know, it actually got worse as she appeared again a week later. Within 2 hours she was off the ward
