Thank you. I'm so bloody scunnered with NHS Fife and have been for years. This is probably not a good thing to say, but the idiots at the Vic were partly responsible for my Mum's death. She was in for a bad fall and needed a line in. Whoever did it gave her an infection and she died 2 weeks later from sepsis. It was not a pretty way to die. She was screaming, hallucinating and I had to sit here and hold her hand and listen to nurses fucking TUTTING at the noise she was making whilst her skin turned purple and mottled and I knew, I bloody KNEW, that she was dying. They told me she'd be fine, she was on antibiotics, and sent me home. She died 5 hours later.
I know this is totally irrelevant to the current case, and I'm going back over a decade with Mum, but this is not a well managed NHS and the Vic is not a well managed hospital. Parts are amazing. Staff are, by and large, absolutely fantastic and compassionate and knowledgeable and brilliant.
Management need sacking. The whole damn lot of them need to go and people who actually give a shit need brought in, staff morale needs to be regained and they need to stop sociopaths like Upton running rampage around the wreckage they're already dealing with.
