Well after arriving at Joondalup Hospital to see my husband and finding my 'strong rock' crying - (yes literally tears streaming down his face) in pain we knew the pain management plan was not working. Having helped 2 other family members and a very good friend with trial and error pain management and succeeding we asked the doctor to come - he agreed to increase the pain medication and then he forgot to write it up. An error which cost my husband a full day of pain - and a wasted 8 more hours - yes, that's right - 8 hours - of being what we felt was fobbed off to then be told that the doctor was now finished for the day and we would now have to wait for the resident to come round and write it up...grrrrr...and this is supposed to be quality care for going Private?
"Doctor forgot."
