I can understand the shower part...seeing how sometimes after surgery doctors don't want you to hit the showers so soon...but the bed pan is stupid if she can walk and is allowed to :dunno:

its more the fact that she is asking for a shower and they are refusing it to her. my dad asked what the reasoning was and it was because of the place being understaffed on the weekends.

you would think a rehab hospital would know that the doctors want the patient to walk as soon as possible after hip or knee surgery. Her walking to the restroom is much better for her.

Gotta love America's severely corrupt and fucked up healthcare system.

we pretty much have it under controll now, we just have to keep on them about stuff all the time she in this place. worst part of it all was that they rushed her to this rehab hospital and she recieved in one day at the other hospital more PT than she has had total at this new place (again, claiming that its a staffing issue) so they rushed her there just to get her out of the other hospital not to start her rehab.

No hospital in America is run by the government it's all private. Healthcare providers are not under government regulation.

my dad is already planning on addressing this issue once she is out to the proper state gvt. and with the people who run both hospitals. Not to get anything out of it really but to just have his points heard.

yeah, that is how it goes here but he still wants people to know how poorly these places are. maybe he could contact susan warnick hahaha (she is the local news anchor here who has a program where she goes aftere these places to expose the problems within.

Dude, my friend's dad was in the local hospital here a while ago. They moved him to another floor and it was lost in the bureaucratic paper piles. For about a day, the hospital had no record of the change of rooms and basically "lost" him.
