    Holy crap! A husband just walked in!

    He self-discharged after they refused to give him the prescribed meds (a synthetic morphine derivative for pain) and offered him paracetamol instead, refused to give him anything to eat (now 48+ hours on no food) and handled his meds with hands unwashed from cleaning up the pee his roommate left all over the floor.

    What's sad is that this is the hospital I work at, and standards outside my department are that low. The search is on for a good private GE specialist.

    Edit: saw your post, csh, thanked it and thoroughly agreed with it. I also think that starting a rival thread to this one when an identical thread already exists in the Arms was a bit odd - but then I'm too fluffy to call her out on it :)

    Well I reported her new thread anyway as an abuse of her powers, and the PM she sent me. Bl00dy cheek of it!!!

    Do your hospital treat all patients so badly or are they just looking to make you a widow so you'll resign? Joke btw!

    Hi Aless,
    I agree with Susan, many people seem to think you can't take baby until they have had all their jabs *insert confused smiley*

    This is what we do at swimming, which although is a council run session, it seems to follow the waterbabies lesons that someone posted about the other day.

    We start by getting baby to learn a command, we use "babies name, ready, go" and then splash their face with water. We then move onto a cup of water and then a jug before the instructor wil allow baby to be "dunked". The command is the important bit, it let baby knows they are going to be wet/dunked.

    HTH

    Ooo, thanks for this! I knew there was something about working them up to dunking but couldn't remember what. You know, I didn't even think about the jabs thing - thanks for rescuing my baby brain again, ladies! :p

    SS, eek!! Hope you guys can sort something out :o

    elle, your fairies are awesome & will make Finn a happy fishy! :p

    csh, I thanked your post because I don't have the balls to say stuff like that but was totally thinking it!!
