WISH MEDI CLINIC WOULD OPEN A PROPER HOSPITAL IN PORT ELIZABETH

PATHETIC INHUMANE AND UTTER UNPROFESSIONAL SERVICE. NETCARE GREENACRES EMERGENCY UNIT JUST DISCHARGED A 78 YEAR OLD WOMAN WITH MOTOR NEURON DISEASE AND A BLOOD GAS OF 80 WHEN SHE ENTERED THE DEPARTMENT. SHE HAD TROUBLE BREATHING AND WE DO NOT HAVE OXYGEN SUPPLY AT HOME CAUSE IT'S NOT BEEN AS BAD AS TODAY. FIRSTLY THEY AGREED TO ADMIT AND I WAS PRESENT WHEN THE CASUALTY DR PHONED THE PHYSICIAN. HIS WORDS WAS..DO CHEST X RAYS BLOODWORK AND A COVID SWAB...*** A COVID SWAB????. I RETURNED TO MY JOB WITH THE PEACE INSIDE ME MY MOM IS IN GREAT HANDS OR SO I THOUGHT. 30 MIN THE CASUALTIES DR PHONED ME AT WORK TELLING ME TO COME AND FETCH MY MOTHER. THE PHYSICIAN SAID ITS A CONDITION NOTHING ELSE WE MUST JUST GO AND GET OXYGEN FOR HER. SHE'S CURRENTLY HOME AND I COULDN'T FIND OXYGEN. ITS NOT THAT SIMPLE DR I STUDIED 12 YEARS. OXYGEN REQUIRES MOTIVATION A PRESCRIPTION A BLOOD GAS COUNT AND IF YOU CAN FIND A SUPPLIER OPEN AFTER 4... PATHETIC PATHETIC PATHETIC. EVEN THE NURSING STAFF WAS IN SHOCK WHEN THEY HEARD SHE'S GETTING DISCHARGED. UNFORTUNATELY MEDI CLINIC HAS NO HOSPITALS IN PORT ELIZABETH. MAYBE CONSIDER OPENING A FEW. YOUR EXCELLENCE AND TOP PROFESSIONAL SERVICE WILL NEVER BE UNDER THREAD FROM NETCARE GREENACRES.
