I
work
in
a
designated
senior
nurse
position
overseas.
I
was
on
a
holiday
when
one
of
my
family
members
had
became
really
ill
and
had
to
be
taken
to
this
hospital
(due
to
proximity,
and
my
family
thought
it
had
good
standards
like
its
flagship
hospital
in
the
city).
Because
I
was
not
well
myself
at
the
time,
I
came
to
visit
my
family
member
day
2
from
admission.
Unfortunately,
when
I
came
to
see
my
sick
family
member
-
I
saw
that
they
had
not
managed
his
symptoms
well.
Despite
his
poor
prognosis,
the
staff
had
not
picked
even
simple
symptoms
of
delirium
-
and
did
not
even
carry
out
any
symptom
management
interventions
(i.e.
pain,
urine
output,
etc).
I
had
to
bring
this
up
with
the
healthcare
staff,
and
highlight
that
this
was
the
case
-
before
they
actually
realise
this.
I
requested
to
see
the
attending
physician
to
discuss
these
issues,
but
apparently
he/she
were
not
on-site
at
the
time.
I
was
shocked
to
know
that
no
attending
physician
is
on
site
at
the
time...
considering
that
this
is
a
"tertiary"
hospital.
For
the
record,
I
had
served
in
other
private
and
public
hospitals
in
the
city
before
(whilst
I
was
a
student
nurse),
but
this
has
to
be
one
of
the
worse
experience
for
a
private
tertiary
hospital
in
terms
of
healthcare
delivery
-
considering
that
you
are
paying
for
"premium"
service,
you'd
expect
to
get
one.
Pros:
-Building
looks
well,
has
plenty
of
parking
available
-Has
CT-Scan
on
site
Cons:
-Poor
healthcare
service
(clinical
and
nursing)
-Premium
price
but
not
reflective
of
service
-AC
was
not
working
well
in
my
family
member's
room
-
was
dripping
heaps
of
water
on
the
floor
(had
to
bring
this
up
before
they
actually
transferred
us
to
another
room)
-Physician
is
not
available
24/7
on-site
-Standards
are
not
the
same
as
their
flagship
hospital,
Cebu
Doctor's
Hospital
-Infection
prevention
and
control
practice
could
be
better
TLDR
-
Don't
waste
your
good
earned
money
here,
go
to
better
hospitals
in
the
inner
city
(public
or
private)
and
get
the
healthcare
service
you
deserve.
