Moz - sorry to hear of your Dads (and yours) terrible experience in hospital.
It was a disgrace!
If I would have seen this kind of behaviour I would have sorted those bl**dy nurses out! - behaviour like this needs to be challenged and disciplinary/appropriate action taken!!
But please don't tar all nurses with the same brush - there are lots of nurses I know who are truly dedicated, kind and compassionate human beings and I would trust them without question.
During my time I have known some awful nurses - but I have also had the priviledge of working with more who have provided an excellent service to the patients they cared for!
I have known many of my nursing (and medical) colleagues being verbally and physically abused by patients when they are trying to help them - a friend of mine had a shotgun put to her head by some particularly nasty relatives of a drug dealing patient whilst he was in casualty........this kind of behaviour is happening more and more frequently.........which is also a disgrace!!
My personal philosophy is to aim to provide a service to patients that I would like to receive
Any nurses who can't treat patients with dignity and respect should get out of the profession - as they are not wanted!
