My husband was admitted on 20 July 2021 at Med24 Montana with Covid and was lying in casualties awaiting a bed in ICU. Although I took his chronic medication to the hospital and stood by when the doctor entered it on the chart, and heard him specifically give instructions that the chronic medication, which included high blood pressure medication, be given to the patient each morning and evening, the sister in charge of my husband only gave him his chronic medication once during his entire stay of 6 days! Apart from the fact that they never gave him oxygen, even when his oxygen level went from 87 to 39 within 12 hours and he DIED as a result thereof on 26 July 2021, they actually sedated him on 24 July 2021 and then stole his cellphone! I was told on the morning of 24 July 2021 that his phones were taken away so that he could rest. Who took it away and why was it not locked away as per normal procedure when a patient is sedated. Upon my several pleas to find the phone and even offering a reward for the return of the phone, in order for me to access his applications and information, I was given empty promises, but that is all. The manager of the Med24 as well as the manager of the Netcare Montana Hospital were absolutely not interested and merely shrugged their shoulders. They have cameras in casualties but apparently it is acceptable that a patient is given sedation and while he is fighting for his life, his cellphone is stolen - and his widow can struggle and plead as much as she likes. This is absolutely unacceptable!! Furthermore, one of the sisters, who was NOT in charge of my husband, was rude to me directly after I was informed that his phone is missing – only on Saturday afternoon – and furthermore she did not allow me to greet my husband on Sunday afternoon 25 July 2021 - contrary to what the doctor said to me that I am allowed to be with him - and that was the last time that I saw him alive - from a distance.
