My parent was in hospital for a bad case of shingles.
Staff at Albany health campus left them alone for half an hour at least. During this time, I understand they fell out of bed and hit their head and kidneys. My parent suffered a brain bleed and I believe was not found for half an hour.
There was no apology or explanation from staff.
My parent was transferred to Perth where they received wonderful care from another hospital.
My parent passed away as a result of an “unexplained” brain bleed.
Have requested documentation from the Freedom of Information officer at the hospital which I feel is taking an extraordinarily long time which leads me to believe the fall was not documented.
