Catherine Parrish says
I congratulate her on her new job and I hope that she will improve the discharge policy at the hospital. And I also highly suggest that she retrained the social workers they Rush in and out of the rooms at the last minute I never said that I didn’t want to go to aftercare I just said I needed to go outpatient but that was never heard of the social worker was extremely rude to me I don’t have anything to prove to you or to her Jenny. She needs to be retrained and knowing how to talk to people not everybody’s is senile or needs to go impatient acute care. What I wanted was outpatient services but no one listened to me about that and no one cared about my feelings.
