Facebook user Mei Lin Au recently posted on Facebook after her husband was left stranded and left at the corridor for hours after going for his X-ray and blood test. She stated that she received an SMS from the Tan Tock Seng hospital transferred her husband to a ward at 10:14pm, but that was not true as he was still left in the corridor.
Here is the full story.
“My husband was referred to Tan Tock Seng Hospital to check on his extremely high heart beat. He was sent for X-Rays and blood test at around 3pm and was told that a doctor will come by to determine if he need to be warded for further tests and observation. At 10pm on the same day, no doctor turned up and my husband was left in a B2 ward CORRIDOR even though he has opted for a B1 ward. The corridor he was left at is hot and stuffy and does not seems to have any form of ventilation devices. It is appalling how TTSH treat their patients. To rub salt in the wound, the hospital has the cheek to send me a message that my husband has been placed in a proper ward and bed when he was left to rot in the corridor and waiting for many hours, and he is still waiting at this moment.”
