Review of Allen ward
All excellent, could have toilets in each room for own sanitary and cleanliness.
There is a need for a place to put towel and clothes in the bath/shower rooms. I used the paper towel dispenser and put my stuff at the end of the bath too.
When I am able to I would like to help as a volunteer to do arts and crafts or music (singing)
I may even retrain to be a health worker of some sort on the mental health wards here or at aylsebury
Thank you for all your support
Review of allen ward
Very patient and caring staff
Communication could be improved regarding appointments etc
Home visits before discharge are vital, to ensure home has food etc
It would be better if one could chose one's staff. Bearing in mind the detentions based on hearsay and the seemingly no discharge in the plans. Also I could not do one thing right - it wasn't correct at one point not to keep in touch with the staff so I got sectioned for that so the next time I did keep in touch and got sectioned for that.
Of course this is me giving evidence which could also be hearsay after all you weren't there to witness this nor where you there to witness the five weeks this time that they refused to let me out because I had fought for my right not to have drugs as I wasn't sectioned and this right has always been denied to me.
Nor were you there to witness a psychiatrist say the truth wouldn't help me but these things happened just as I got sectioned for asking how many times the surgery used a defibrilator and for allegedly not wearing shoes, for saying I had no money for cat food and for talking about slavery.
I want to see this place close.
I am a member of the public.
