My father collasped at home and I called 999. I have been in Newham A&E for over 3 hours . I explained to a nurse when I found one hour into our wait that I had not given my dad his medication and He is now over due. I was brushed off and said that the Doctor will be here soon and to explain to them.
2 hours have passed since then and still no-one has come to check on him. I have even had to struggle to take him to the toilet as he can not controll it another reason for bringing him in at his age urine retention or over production of urine is dangerous.
He as had observations and blood taken but no-one has come. I lost my mother 10 years ago in this hospital after a collapse at home I am trying to hold it together for my dad but I am on my own as my husband is at work in Newham Transport but luckly I am on annual leave from Stratford Ward, so the ward is not without admin support. I am disgusted that the only people who have check on us are mine or my husband work colleages without that I would be in bits.
