Bad Treatment

Today I had a bad experience from the hospital. My son was referred to Medforum Private Hospital by the doctor who examine him at Wisani Medical Centre. The doctor called me at work and explain the problem my son is having, I must come immediately to fetch him and straight to Medforum. I left my work and straight to fetch my son and his mother and straight to Medforum. I reach Medforum at 20h40. He was admitted, I took him to ward g at seven floor. he was given a bed and I singed documents acknowledging her admission. I stay with his mother in the ward. Round about 23h45. my son was crying. and the sister came to check him and started talking to us, asking what's wrong with my son. I said he doesn't want to sleep. The next minute she told me my son is making noise for other children because they want to sleep. I ask her if we were not around, what would happen, she told me they'll just take him out of the cord bed to the front. I said nothing and she left and my son was still crying. it was 00H25 the other sister or nurse came to me and ask if I'm going to stay, I told her yes because I want to speak to the doctor when she comes, she told me I'm not allowed to stay, I ask her were is that stated, she gave me an a4 paper, the last paragraph states that one parent should be present, and ask me to leave the ward. I told her, why is she showing me that paper at that time, she never answer me. I told her I don't want to waist petrol going up and down because I need to see the doctor with my sons problem, the very same problem he was discharged from the hospital two weeks ago. she told me to leave the ward and go sleep outside the hospital. Mind you I'm the father, its my medical aid they gonnna charged. I'm the one who brought him there. but I'm treated like a hoobo leaving on the street and my son annoise other children with his crying. I have to drive from Pretoria to my home in Ga-Rankuwa at that time. im not allowed to check on my son 's progress. What an evening.
