On attending F11 ward for venesection as I have done for many years I had a venesection from trainee nurse, on her own she wasn't doing the procedure correctly at all she never offered me water that is vital on having venesection also didn't take my blood pressure vital on having venesection bag lower than my arm to fill the bag with blood it just went back on its self and on rectifying her mistakes while in the process of having my venesection she left me on my own, I then felt unwell and started to feel dizzy I then blacked out on the bed awakening to know one around on the ward I was the first patients at that time, they only had 1 bed to share by everyone the rest of the patients sat in chairs while having venesection, it was unacceptable and since 2018 I've halve constant blood test at home indicating I didn't need a venesection until now august 2021 I phone up for my blood results they refused to give them to me unacceptable then told me I've been tslken off from venesection at Oldham F11 ward by incompetent nurse, with a bad attitude saying I've not had a venesection since 2018, Hello I've not needed a venesection and also there has been a pandemic so they wasn't doing venesections so not my fault and now I need a venesection which is vital to my health and to stop my organs from being damaged from high iron levels but to be told get your doctor to re- refare you Totally not acceptable at all for the incompetent so called nurse on F11 ward to ply God with peoples lives as heamocromatosis is deadly if not treated maybe she should go back and get some training and sort out her atitude as well, I've been in touch with Rochdale hospital and they said this isn't right and they will be gladly do my vital venesection to basically keep me alive thanks to piu Rochdale I'm able to continue with my treatment that is ongoing throughout my life,100% thanks again to piu staff Rochdale hospital kind and caring staff never fail to give all patients there highest care, Thanks,(Mr martin cook) dated 26/8/21
