My spouse was sent to the Kerang hospital, (by another health care professional) with severe dehydration and at that stage, undiagnosed food poisoning. I believe they were left laying there for over 5 hours, seemingly with not a single glass of water offered, let alone the drip and tests that I recall was recommended by the nurse practitioner. As I understand it, blood pressure and heart rate taken within the first 10 minutes, then literally nothing. Water and later a jug of water I felt were only given after me asking for them.
I recall the admitting clinician said they didn't want to hear my spouse's history.
"Very disappointing standard of care"
