  My Grandfather was admitted to this hospital and stayed for almost two months. Everytime I went to visit there were different nurses who didn't even know who he was, they could not tell me any information regarding his health and one nurse actually managed to tell me whether he had or hadn't put any weight on or made an improvement and that was only because I made a fuss. On one visit my Grandfather looked un well and I could see he had difficulty talking. I looked in his mouth and his dentures were filthy and the smell was putrid, he had oral thrush. I cleaned his dentures myself as well as his mouth. His finger nails were dirty and he had food around his mouth. Another time I took him some bananas and he ate like a man who had been starved. I told the nurses that I had left bananas on his table and they were not aware that he liked them..thats after I pointed to him and said that man there..my Grandfather as they did not know who he was. I truely believe that he was left there to die because he was old and had cancer, just like the other people in rooms you saw as you passed by, mouths open, alone waiting to die. So glad we finally got him home to look after him properly.
