She’s not really doing herself any favours if she’s looking for a second opinion yet not giving consent for another dr to do further investigations. Move her on to a 6 bed public ward and she won’t be long about going home.

Average daily cost is 1.3k for a stay. So 1 million euro give or take.

She’s obviously not well. The solicitor who is supporting her claims (and presumably charging her) should be investigated

What makes it worse is that according to rumors elsewhere she’s in the worst hospital in the country. A hospital where a good few people I know will travel to others parts of the country in order to avoid it.
No way would I want to be there unless I had no choice.

We’re just too soft in this country, legally at least. Between this, people staying in houses even if they haven’t paid their mortgage in years and and all the suspended sentences for violent crimes. Is there any point being law abiding?

Someone’s about to lose all their inheritance money with all these appeals

Wow, this is crazy. My Dad has been in hospital several times and each time they sent him home with no diagnosis and no treatment. We are at our wits end. The last time he went in we said we wouldn’t take him out with getting a diagnosis and a care plan. After a week they send him to a care home by taxi without telling us he was being discharged. We had to go bring him home and the situation remains as before.
My experience with both my parents and my in laws to date has been ‘they are old and we don’t care’

you don’t consent to discharge unless there is a step-down care plan e.g. a suitable care home and that might take a few additional days up to two week making it the Hospital’s problem motivating them to find a slot elsewhere for you but staying in hospital for two years is crazy.

I’d say the Nurses and HCAs are terrified of her, if she’s sending emails all night and day.
These cases are not unknown. I know of at least one other case in UHG. A lady who refused all discharge accommodations as not good enough. She was in a private room too the entire time. I think she was in there for over 3 years!

Hold her under the mental health act and transfer her somewhere more appropriate as there’s clearly something going on here

Obviously none of us know the circumstances but if shes sharp enough to be sending emails as an elderly person I can’t imagine that she isn’t sharp enough to be either at home with home help or in a nursing home.
We had to refuse my elderly father in law getting discharged from letterkenny hospital because we all worked and he had no home help. As soon as we refused him coming home they weren’t long getting him home help and he was so happy to be home.
This patient is just an awkward cunt and I hope the hospital can ship her out

I have to say that the comments on Reddit Ireland are some of the worst on the internet. Just dogshit takes from every angle. It’s like Liveline at this stage.
