Eugene Marais suck. Poor management
I understand it's covid,but unfortunately I was admitted to life Eugene Marais hospital numerous times the last 6 years. There were plenty of insidence and it's shocking how they get away with it. First my son almost lost his arm due to nurses not checking up on him once after surgery. When they discovered something was wrong 3:00 in the morning it was to late. After days of watching him hour by hour he managed to pull through. I was undergoing major surgery and the medical staff did not order medication in time. Got out of theatre at 16:00. 23:00 that night I did not receive any pain relief and the nurse told me to call the surgeon as she couldn't find my prescription that already ordered at the pharmacy. First time in 6 hours when the took my vitals she asked if I feel ok and I rep**** no. It feels like I'm dying and I just couldn't fight anymore. She suspected that the BP machine was broken and went to get another one. The second time,this was after 23:00 she found that my BP was down to 73/41. I was 34 years old. They found my bag of medication in another ward and then all hell broke loose. They were running with me to icu as they thought I'll crash any moment. 21 June 2021 was worse than that,but I then already knew to take my own medication. After hours of begging I eventually took a tablet to just some relieve. When asking for help they just walk out and ignore they're patients. We had to help each other in the room and eventually the next morning after I was discharged I dressed myself packed my stuff and started to leave on my own as no one was planning on taking out my drains and iv. They then realized I will actually walk out and quickly called the pharmacy for my dressings. I had to teach the nurse how to apply the dressings. Waited 6 hours after I was discharged. This is some of the stuff that happened. It took me a week to recover from shock as it was ********** how they just ignored us and keep on doing that. I will never use Eugene Marais and I'm planning on telling my surgeon to admit me t another hospital if I have to go into hospital again for a minor shoulder procedure.
