found a bed!

on thursday afternoon they finally found a bed. well, i dont think the 'found' one as such, more like one was forced. things are going so so. its extremely noisey. not normal hospital noise. the staff shout from one end of the corridor to the other because they are too freaking lazy to walk up to each other and talk quietly. people keep stopping outside my door and discussing quite loudly what they are doing on the weekend etc etc etc. doctors keep writing my meds up wrong and not looking at my notes properly so they are getting a very skewed idea of my history. one doc came in and said "oh no, you have lost 10 kilos. it says here you once weighed 77 kilos". i cracked up laughing and said "of course ive lost weight!. that was my past steroid weight!". read-my-notes-honey, ALL of my notes thanks. the nurses are injecting my medications in way too fast despite me telling them not to over and over again. 2 grams of meropenem in within 30 seconds, no joke. missed medications. found a scab, yes a SCAB in one of the drawers. there was pee on the bathroom wall. bin didnt get emptied for a whole day so there was rubbish spilling out onto the floor.

oh i feel so safe and comfortable there... not.

I can not believe the stuff I'm seeing from you guys in hospitals! I can't believe there are hospitals like yours in existence. I cannot even imagine this. Please make sure they at least wash their hand before touching you, as I am sure this is not practiced either. Now I'm as worried as you aare! How long aare you in for, and where are you at? Take care, I'm sorry you are going through this crap! <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif" border="0">

one put a contaminated tip of a syringe into my port! i said "AH" just before she put it in but it was too late. i was peed off to the max. my ex was there watching too, you should have seen the look on his face. that nurse was damn lucky that the top of that syringe didnt touch anything likely to have germs on it. also, they were meant to check my oxygen levels when i sleep but no one has bothered to do that. either the nurses are slack as or the doctor didnt write it up even though she said "yep, i will write that up now" when i asked her. feels like im talking to a brick wall with them. very stressful. im in till thursday if all goes well and they dont make me sicker. im at sir charles gairdner in perth.

oh well back to the hospital now.

Oh my God, I can't believe all this is happening to you. I hope that you get better very soon, so you can get out of there.

I'm so sorry you have to start off feeling uncomfortable with your care. We always inspect the room when we get there too. Once we found poo on the shower curtain!! We all sat on the bed until they came to bring a new curtain. Didn't even unpack. We have to whip those people into shape!!!

I really hope it gets better Kylie!!

OH Kylie, im sorry your experience has to be so dreadful. The shame of it is, that hospital workers just dont seem to care anymore these days or there just isnt enough help. I hope you get better and out of there soon. The sooner the better .<img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif" border="0">

well im home now. i got 2 and a half hours sleep last night due to the excessive noise, excessive heat due to bad airconditioning and an excessively hard bed. i had leg cramps all night due to the bed, which i dont even fit on. i threw a wobbly and told them i was going home. im never going in again unless its a private hospital.
