Many Sad Basildon Hospital Visits Opened Our Eye's - 1/6/2008

Many Weeks Have Passed (November 2008) And The Dirty Foot Prints In The Corridor Still Remain!
My 86 years of age sister-in-law (An Ex Nurse) was recently admitted for a short time to a side ward in the temporary Frank Ahrens (Mary Right) ward with serious medical problems, before being transferred to William Harvey Ward.

My Family Respect And Adhered To The Two Visitors To A Bed Rule.
While waiting in the corridor outside the Frank Ahrens Ward with my other 76 year old sister-in-law and my wife we could not help to notice dirty footprints on the corridor floor, at the time it was just a passing glance due to the boredom of taking our visiting waiting turns, however, 11th November 2008 (5 Month's Later) the floor has still not been cleaned and the dirty foot prints are still in place!

How often are the floors at Basildon Hospital cleaned?

The Old Tilbury Hospitals Cleansing Put Basildon Hospital To Shame.
On some visits to the hospital my wife and I detoured through the corridor of Frank Ahrens/Endoscope to see how long the dirty foot prints on the floor remain, and to date 1/6/2008(4 Weeks) the floor has not been cleaned.

There Were No Basic Spare Bed Blankets To Keep My Sister-in-law Warm!
It is approx 3pm and my dear sister-in-law was shivering in her bed, and she asked my wife (her sister) if she would cover her up as she was cold, we noticed that there was no Blanket on her bed, only a sheet!
I approached a caring ward Nurse and very kindly requested a blanket only to be informed that there were NO Blankets available as they have not come up from the stores yet!

This very kind caring Senior nurse went onto to say the bed was stripped in the morning due to my sister-in-law spilling something on the bed, this was evident as it was still all over the sheet that also needed to be changed.

Sadly this event resulted in me complaining to a nurse until a blanket was found three floors down, and my sister-in-laws bed was changed.

This catalogue of events was witnessed by a Thurrock Councilor who was visiting his relative in the adjoining bed.

The above floor area is under renovation and it looks as if the dirty area in question is having a complete make over. 12/3/2009

This Really Takes

Basildon NHS Hospitals Restaurant Prices - Early 2009 Prices
The wife and I have made a lot of visits to Basildon Hospital due to the above subject, and decided to have our dinner in the Hospital restaurant.

The Food Is Good, But How Can Pensioners Afford The Prices!
2 Tea's and 2 Meals - Cost us nearly £10.00, and then we had the Car Park £3.00 fee to pay.

How On Earth Can The NHS Justify These Scandalous Prices?
They will be putting coin slots on the Toilet doors next.

The New Hospital Car Park Should Be FREE To Use
