Written by a patient

I have selected extremely unlikely not due to any of the staff on Bay Ward. I have found the majority of staff easy to talk to and they genuinely want the best for you. I feel that the lack of resources eg Drs availability - having to wait 4 days for a suppository to be supplied after 3 weeks of constipation and the lack of staffing has a huge impact on the ward, it's very disappointing for both patients and staff to not be able to do activities because they are snowed under with work. No activities in the weekend? Do you think mentally unwell people just don't need activities at the weekend and only should have them Monday to Friday?? I find the management of this hospital appalling - I had a problem with a patient on a different ward who was disturbing me and I was constantly fobbed off nothing was done about it - this made me feel more depressed than when I first came in Berrywood.
