A few weeks i transferred from melomed Mitchell's plain to melomed Gatesville for an angiogram. The 1st night wasn't too bad in Gatesville, however the madness starts on the 2nd day! Doctor and his came around to do an echo and all seemed ok. Doctor still said the final decision is mine. Called my wife with the results, for her also to say the final decision is mine. Next to me was a Boeta who was also scheduled for an angiogram. The man was returned to ward after the procedure and was told to his legs still. The man is half sedated and was told keep still? Later the evening i went to the toilet and saw the Boeta's right leg was moved and there was no nurse at his bedside. I came back from the bathroom 20 minutes later (hospital food) and he was still in that position and still no nurse. A few mintues later the alarms were going off at his bed and 10minutes after the alarms did his nurse return. Nurse put off the alarms, adjusted the Boeta'a position and did a few checks. Less than 30min later did the alarms go off again and now the Boeta's bed is surrounded by nurses and whoever else. Nearly a hour of this goes by before things quiet down. A few hours go by and they rush the Boeta to theatre. The Boeta passed away in theatre from "complications"..
Morning came and i told the nursing staff i do not want to proceed with the angiogram and want to go home. The doctor came and told him I'm not doing the angiogram and gave the reason why. The ward manager Petrus came to me and said that it was because of other stuff, i must not worry and say too much.
Someone died because of negligence and i was told not to say too much.
The ripple effect of this has caused me to not trust the staff at all and now have anxiety & fear of hospitals.
To the family of the Boeta, may the Almighty grant him the highest abode in paradise.
