Written by a NHS patient
3rd January 2024


I was admitted to Amu in November 2023 where I was told that I had pneumonia, chest infection was dehydrated and suspected internal bleeding. They were notified that I am immunosupressed due to anti rejection tablets following an organ transplant. They Dumped me into a chair where I was put on a drip, where I was told I had to sleep there overnight. The next day I was moved to a different area and dumped at the back end of a ward in the corridor next to a sink area for nurses, which was splattered with blood. When I asked about a pillow, I was told there weren't any. I expressed my concern, but was ignored. The following day I was moved again to a disused consultation room, not set up for patients no alarm pull etc. There was no switch to turn the lights out ,when I asked a nurse I was told that they were movement activated. By the early hours they were still on , when I asked the nurse she took me to another area full of patients and said the was a bed there if I wanted it. I refused and reminded her of not only my immune system but also my suffering of PTSD and social anxiety. I was taken back to the room where I broke down, a Dr was called , and gave me a sleeping tablet.Again the next day I was moved once again, this time to a side room. When the catering staff came to take my food order , they would not enter my room because of my immune system. This was farcical seeing as I had already been Dumped in various unsuitable areas. I couldn't get out of there quick enough, I was starving and bruised due to inadequate care. This was the most shambolic experience I have ever had to endure. I would never recommend anyone to go to AMU .I was brought up to be proud and grateful for our NHS , I no longer believe that this is correct for this disgusting dump of a hospital.
