Rejected petition Allow hospital visitors
Allow Hospital visits
More details
Patients are being nursed behind closed doors and are unable to obtain the support they need from family and friends. They are being deprived of the simplest every day items. A nearly blind 72 year old diabetic asked for a brown bread sandwitch he was eventually given biscuits that he could not open due to a hand operation. Staff have become negligent and sloppy behind closed doors. Its time to open the doors. Goverment, Parliament should look at this with urgency. Covid is no longer an excuse.
