Lack of compassion
My 81 year old mother was alone when given a terminal diagnosis at 1 o’clock in the morning after a 10 hour wait in A&E. She was never referred to oncology, just switched between care of the elderly and respiratory wards at will, this resulted in her being discharged home with no further care in place. This is a brief summary of what was a tragic experience for our entire family. My mother-in-law must have had a similar experience during April-July 20 where she caught covid in Pinderfields and remained an in patient for 4 months - her mantra now is “help me, help me” I can only assume this is a remnant of her “care” in the hospital
