Slip of the tongue: Hospital apologises to mother over 'weird' medicine label

Facebook users have widely shared a post and condemned a hospital in Prachin Buri for stating on the label of medicine prescribed for a child that the mother had attacked the hospital on Facebook.
 

The post showing the label went viral and the hospital issued an apology on Wednesday, saying it was simply issuing an internal warning to staff to be especially careful in the way they treated the mother.

 

The mother, whose Facebook user name is Lookked Chalisa, posted a photo the medicine bottle label that reads: “Mother of this child posted criticisms against officials". The message was displayed above the drug name.

 

The mother’s post demanded an explanation from the hospital though she did admit to attacking the hospital on her Facebook wall three months ago. The post, which has since been removed, complained about the apparent reluctance of the hospital staff to provide service.

 

Many Facebook users attacked the hospital, commenting that the hospital lacked medical ethics and it should not have humiliated the mother in this way.

 

In its apology, the letter said the staff were simply warning each other that the mother had expressed dissatisfaction at services earlier and they should treat her well. Unfortunately, the warning was not removed.

 

The names of the mother and the hospital in Prachin Buri's Prachantakham were withheld.

"..........had expressed dissatisfaction at services earlier and they should treat her well. "    Am I reading this wrong or does it imply they don't normally treat people well ?

Surely they treat people who are unwell.

What's next, labels like "let the patient suffer, he/she made critical remarks about the junta?"

A Facebook user name. Accompanied by a photo. Won't require Sherlock to work that one out.

The hospital could at least share this sophisticated database technology with RTP or Immigration.

 

On a side note...

I remember once I was in hospital with my sick daughter. We had a private room with bathroom but no towels or soap. 

 

She threw up all over herself AND me - and I was doing my best to clean us both up when I turned around and 2 nurses were watching me - I'm holding a sick 2 year old in one arm and trying to clean us up with one hand.

 

And they did....

 

Absolutely bugger all. Nada. Nothing. Zilch. Zip. Just stood in the doorway gawking at me.

 

Needless to say I immediately checked out and never went back again. Dreadful place.

Same at so called famous '5 star' hospital in Bkk, my Thai son discovered that the daily report sheet hanging on the end of her bed was the wrong child, not his young 4 yr old daughter who was quite ill with a respitory problem. Son took the report to the nurses station and asked to speak to the head nurse. He got ignored, 'too busy now'. He took the report to the administration office and got scolded for interfering. He asked for details of the initial medication prescribed by the visiting doctor but nobody listened, turned out the medication given to his young was, as to be expected in the circumstances, for the child detailed on the report sheet, not son's daughter. Bottom line his daughter was receiving the wrong medicine. Son asked for another doctor to come and prescribe the correct medicine for his daughters health situation. Cannot, have to wait for doctor to come tomorrow.

 

Son and his wife quickly wrapped their daughter up, packed their bags, walked out and immediately went to another hospital. Half a day later the head nurse called and started to talk about calling the police. Son said never mind I have already contacted the police and my lawyer will be at your hospital later today, he has an appointment with the CEO of the hospital. Nurse backed off, hospital never contacted son again. 

 

Twelve months ago son and his wife took youngest daughter to hospital for her vaccinations, son asked to check the names on the vials against the list of serums to be given. Wrong serums, staff all laugh, son goes to the doctor, and older Thai lady childrens specialist who 30 minutes earlier had listed the serums to be given. Doctor instantly says to my son 'please come with me' she heads for the treatment room and gives the nurse staff a blast, tells them to get the correct serums instantly. Doctor comes back 15 minutes later and asks my son to work together to check all the serum names and she gives the inoculations. Doctor then pulls a paper out of her coat pocket and saya the value of the now unuseable wrong serums is xxxBaht and all of you will have xxxBaht deducted from your next salary. Doctor sincerely apologizes to my son and his wife, and tells them she will in future supervise / give all injections in the future and she has. Nurse staff just stand there looking uncomfortable and guilty.

good for your son to check the labels

 

but vaccines, except polio, are not needed

people take them blindly, blind belief in the MD

the MD or the pediatrician, so called child expert, does not even know or care what is in it, what chemicals, if it is dangerous or not.... they care about you paying the bill, the bill for their service, the bill for the hospital, the bill for the nurse that always comes to check your temp & blood pressure even for things not needed, but it is a service, they can bill

 

vaccines are not safe, there are no clinical human trials, they don't want to do them on animals as they know what the result will be

 

vaccine companies cannot be sued, so if your child gets damaged for life, than you fit the bill

 

the amount of vaccines, containing aluminium, MSG, aborted human foetus cells culture, is not safe for even an adult GORILLA (in weight) but ok to inject into a few pounds baby

 

everybody can do their own homework ... blind fate in this "medical" industry and it is not healthcare, it is an industry with big profits or learn a bit

 

watch the movie VAXXED.....

 

the CDC knows for over 10 years that some vaccines given early in life (before age of 3) can damage a child for life, known as autism

 

but the pharma industry is blackmailing governments all over the world, if they would stop the very profit business of vaccines, they would stop making other "medications" also...

 

and recently I discovered that most meds you are taking without thining were originally "made" as antibiotics, but now being used as an orphan drug... learn to read the labels, side effects, where some have DEATH as a side effect...
