We had a lovely night time nurse called Elly. She was really supportive and caring. Thank you. We were just disappointed that our babies 6pm dose of IM cef was handed over to the night staff, so delayed for 2 hours. It was the only treatment our 6m old baby needed that whole day. Handing it over to the night staff meant it was late by 2 hours (so not covered for infection in that time). It also meant we had to wake him up from his 6.30pm bedtime to give an IM injection. Seemed a bit mean and unnecessary. I feel like it wouldn't have taken alot of effort to give at the prescribed time, and if our nurse was tied up and couldn't give (I understand) she could have asked a less busy colleague to help.
