New Zealandyes no matter how good the organisation is, it only takes one disinterested (being polite here!) staff member to leave you with unpleasant memories. Are you going to put in a complaint? It's really not good enough to ignore you like that!
As for the prices for anyone who is not bog-standard, well don't get me started on that! Apart from services and goods my daughter needs (such as a banana board....that bright yellow bit of plastic to help with transfers.....$256 if we buy it!! or months of emails and red tape if we try to get it thro 'the system'. I am coeliac, so have to be gluten-free.....just got back from another shopping trip when I've spent the same on 1 g/f loaf as I did for 3 loaves for my husband. Now see what you've done, got me started
. I work for the Citizen's Advice Bureau and often get people at the end of their tether because they can't work due to disability, so claim disability benefit, for which they have to produce a doctor's certificate ($70) every year to prove they are still disabled.....if you're an amputee you're really not likely to grow back that missing limb!! As you say, it's the vulnerable who suffer, they are the ones least likely to be able to stick up for themselves.
Off my high horse now, hope your nursing staff are now much more helpful and that you won't be there much longer

. I'd say take whatever is on offer, and it sounds as if you're wearing your PT out with all those massages 
sigh: pretty humid here, probably the same for you if it's overcast....hope hospital has good aircon)
you to cope with one more thing on the list. Anyway now that your liberated from the leash tied to the bed you can get thru today with flying colors. Can you take your tether with you and walk around the ward? Be a good girl and eat all you food and ask for protien shakes. My doctor was adamant that it’s important to eat at least 2200 calories a day to help aide in the healing process.![[Bonesmart.org] No surgery for me](https://data.bonesmart.org/attachments/55/55414-080b1a51e50f3c60269460b8d424ab66.jpg?hash=CAsaUeUPPG){kind=small}
