Wilgers Hospital just another problem

There are not enough characters to explain my whole experience. My mother has cancer and epilepsy. she has been admitted to Wilgers Hospital for some time now. During the last 7 months it has been hell in that hospital.<br> She was admitted in September for cellulites which is an infection. They put her in a room with 3 other people who were exposed to this infection and it is policy to admit such a patient in a separate room.They did not write down her home medication which I found out later. We ALWAYS take the medication with. So for some time she had not taken epilepsy meds.They did not follow procedure.Raymond, head of the oncology ward of the night staff,did address this problem after explaining.The oncology ward staff treat patients ill with no patience nor any sympathy. My mother was admitted again for confusion recnetly,her epilepsy meds dosage was to low. She had continuous fits.She went from trauma unit, to ICU, to Urology ward to oncology ward. Again they did not write down her home medication.The night nurse wrote it down after I brought it to her attention.Vincent made me fill in the admittanceform on release date.Most of them cover for each other. Disgusting and sickening
