Grandpa 10/11/22

We learn that she did call ambulance to help our grandpa after overnight of being on the floor. She called me last night saying one doctor assessed him saying that if that if my grandpa was his patient he would have sent him home. My grandma spoke up to say that he has fallen twice and she needs answers why. Apparently my grandpa was upset that she was leaving and why she couldn’t stay overnight at hospital. This hospital had visitor hours she couldn’t stay.This morning my mother inform me that he has a broken hip. Apparently at hospital he tried to get up and fell again. He aggravated most of the time. They are trying to find something that will calm him. He also wants to know where my grandma is at most of the time. Was not the newsI was hoping for. Not shock because he is fragile and has a hard time getting around.

Omg that hospital is negligent and or understaffed ( like half of them are). His room should have been in view of nurse's station and bed very low to floor. Alarm when he moves from bed or 1:1 sitter if he is know to not stay put and has mental impairment.

Most all hospitals allow at least one family member to stay overnight in situation of child patients, dementia patients, new birth and most other conditions.
I should know because I work in a new hospital every week. The most severe Covid protocols ( no visitors)have been lifted for many months at 99% of hospitals.
Your grandma needs support. This is too much for her to handle. I wonder if she fought back if they would have allowed her to stay or maybe she was tired and wanted to go home.
