"Midwife banging door on me"

About: Armadale Hospital / Maud Bellas Maternity Ward & Neonatal Nursery

(as the patient),

Had my csection done but still healing- the wa night carer- the whole night I felt they didn’t even bothered to show any empathy to ensire m

Okay- was just repeating that you are day 3 and teaching lessons how to behave- without realising the fact that I am still in hospital for a reason.

Even when I was calling they would taken ages , in my opinion come in rude manner, even for nappy change they was holding the baby as if taking out their grudges — I called them bcz I need help to out bed railing down as I was sore and couldn’t manage to get onto bed while railing was on- after a long wait when I felt they didn’t even bothered come .. I gradually made my way.

When they came - I believe they were was extremely rude - banging door on me mentioning that I should be calling them for such things started arguing - told them I don’t have energy to fight- I recall they literally bagged door and left
