Patient given wrong medication at Linksfield Netcare Clinic

Good day

I admitted my Mother May Hessenauer to your hospital on Saturday. On admission for vomiting blood, I explained to both attending doctors very carefully that my Mother reacts very badly to anti-psychotics and please to NOT give her any anti-pdychotics.

She received Seroquel at your hospital in 2017 and has never been the same again.

Now I found out she is on another antipsychotic and already her behavior is changing. She is aggressive and refusing to eat.

And this medication is indicated as extremely dangerous for the elderly with dementia which she is.

If you do not stop this medication immediately I must remove my Mother from the hospital to safeguard her and I must seek legal council.

I am taking video footage of the changes in my Mother.

This is urgent, I have left many messages for her attending physician Doctor Hunt who has not rep****.

I will hold the hospital responsible for any damage done to my Mother through wrong prescription and I will report this on social media sites.

In urgency, Jacqueline Hessenauer

Reviewer Update
I would like to offer an update. I met with Doctor Hunt and had a very beautiful conversation with him. I found him to be sensitive and compassionate and seeking the most favorable outcome for my Mom. And so we have found a way forward. And as move through differences and into deeper understanding, I would like to recommend Dr Hunt as I sense he has a vast knowledge and a true interest in healing. And I also want to recommend Linksfield Clinic. It feels like a hospital that is evolving and bringing in more sunlight and kinder staff than other hospitals and I this goes a long way to healing.
