My grandparent was recently admitted to acute from the emergency department on the background of ongoing loose bowels. They had routine investigations, however, was required to stay in hospital for 3-4 days. We visited on the 3rd day and had to source their toothbrush, comb and glasses from their belongings so they could read the paper and brush their dentures/comb their hair. My grandparent had not been washed or showered since admission. I believe this is not an acceptable standard of care.
