SHOCKING EXAMPLES OF FAMILIES’ CONCERNS
When I visited he had fallen out of bed. Nurses fell about laughing and continued while helping me lift him
If we didn’t visit at meal times I don’t think my father would have eaten as he wasn’t able to feed himself but the staff didn’t feed him either
Ignored, not spoken to, not cleaned properly, not even given water or tea, not helped to eat
After a fall my husband had to call 999 for help in his hospital room. No one came. Lay on the floor for 75 minutes in agony before a doctor could be found
No food or drink for 16 hours
I told staff a few times of concerns about my mum but felt as if I was a nuisance
