I told Nurse that my patient who I have had privately for 4 years was declining due to terminal cancer. I said he has around 3 weeks left but was still not admitted into hospice. I only involved them due to me No longer doing him as a 1-1. Next day he was admitted into QEH, went to 3 different departments and then last days at ward 25 (discharge lounge) where he received poor care and attention. I stayed 1 night and still visited every day and still cleaned him every day due to him being wet or had opened his bowels. My patient did not have 1 sore on him until he was admitted and got a pressure ulcer. He received excellent care. Why at this point was he not taking to a hospice. I was told because he was drinking still?? Every human is different and he loved his tea He was 92 years old and I promoted independence until a week before he passed and he could not manage.

Response from Queen Elizabeth Hospital

Thank you for taking the time to post your review of the Queen Elizabeth Hospital, however, this page is for reviews of Greenwich and Bexley Community Hospice rather than the hospital. in order to support getting your feedback to the correct place I have passed onto the PALS team at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital, but would recommend you also take this up directly with them. Kind regards, Graham Turner Director of Care & Service Transformation
