Subject: RE: BS: Compensation culture
Thanks Jacqui....I believe there is a "test case2 going through court a the moment.
Apparently the problem is in proving that MRSA was not present before admission to hospital.
The conditions were indeed horrific.
Excrement on lavatory walls, toilets not cleaned for ten days, baths with five "tide marks",these baths used by patients with open wounds.
When I complained, I was told that cleaners had too much work to do ,and too little time.   The nurses appeared uncaring about the condition of wards or toilets....So much for privatisation...Ake
PS Glad to talk to you ,I enjoy your posts very much....
