Tolworth Hospital

Great environment to be in

Good support staff most of the time. Sometimes ignorant, but usually good talks held to help patients & staff maintain good relations.

Okay well there were some staff who were cool but I think they favourited me because I am quite interesting. But interesting as the ward I'm talking of got shut down. I remember the ward being like a super dodgy hostel, but obviously with the secure feature added. It was oddly mixed gender which became problematic in certain ways. The bedrooms looked like they had been built decades ago but patched up repeatedly like putting sticking plasters on a gaping ulcer. Maybe the ward was kind of like an ulcer. I mean the staff that liked me prevented psychological torture from lengthening the stay. But I found it really odd that they sometimes followed legislation but then often kind of ... forgot. ("Forgot"). Its a complex situation with funding but not being able to afford milk for several days when the supplies ran out, and nurses having to buy milk themselves for the patients, odd funding allocation. I think the psychiatrists had a lot of compassion fatigue, or maybe they just weren't suited to the job. Or maybe there are other reasons. But it was odd that it was a type of secure treatment ward but there wasn't treatment except meds. Taking your own books in is great, but eventually you don't ever want to see a book again. And the TV remote seemed to either not exist in spacetime, or someone had consumed the batteries. It was.......an interesting but often problematic place.
