An acquaintance of mine was in the Red Cross Hospital Bremen Neustadt for 5 weeks. He was very satisfied with the medical care and the friendly nursing staff. In his opinion, the best hospital he has ever been to. The doctors not only saved his life, but also his left leg. Cheers to vascular surgery .....................................
Such a hospital should definitely be recommended ...........

Unfortunately, my friend has now had a very bad experience with the nursing staff, which led him to leave the ward against medical advice and write about the following complaint against certain nurses:

Dear Doctor. XXXXXXXXX

On February 13th, 2018 I rang my room XXX at 4:00 p.m. for a nurse because I had severe pain in my left foot.
I was told by the learning nurse J. that I would not receive any pain reliever, because according to the analysis by the learning sister J., the pain came from my back and I should sit upright on the edge of the bed and the feet should hang down. Said and done very reluctantly, because the pain got worse and I should endure the procedure for at least 10 minutes. 10 minutes later the pain was still there. I had to endure the pain until 5:30 p.m. Furthermore, I should receive a cooling envelope around my left leg, which should remain on my leg for 15 to 20 minutes. This cooling envelope was created by learning sister J. at 4:20 p.m. At 5:00 p.m. I rang the bell again for a nurse so that the warm envelope can be removed from my leg. The station attendant D. looked at the envelope and disappeared apathetically from the room as if it was none of his business. At 5:25 p.m. I rang the bell again. Sister W. explained to me that I could remove the envelope myself and also wanted to leave the room ignorantly when I called after her who should now do the bandage. Visibly reluctant, she made the bandage for me and said so succinctly that something like this could be "forgotten" once.
During the entire late shift, I had the impression that the staff seemed to be overwhelmed with their tasks and completely ignored me. When Sister W. came back into the room at 7:00 p.m. and asked if she could "do something for us", I told her I wanted to go. The station doctor on duty then appeared very quickly T., who wanted to prevent my "goodbye" by telling me that I was taking the risk of losing my leg and that I should stay on the ward at least until Friday. I described my concern to Mr. T. why I wanted to go. He is well informed about the events. Had Sister J. had the clarifying conversation with me, I would probably have stayed at home. Instead, she dodged me and arrogantly ignored me, which is probably her way. I just wanted to know what I did to all of you ??????????
Sister W. could no longer save the situation because she kept telling me that "going" was my decision.
These "gentlemen" are very far from knowledge of human nature and interpersonal relationships.
After this "disagreement" between me and this care worker in the late shift, it was emotionally impossible for me - contrary to common sense - to remain on the ward.
The final sentence of my acquaintance should let every person with a heart recognize what he intends to do in despair, "when the time comes". It's not the first time.
