My wife has tried ringing the hospital for 2 days, no one is answering the phone, she wants to check on her dad, just wants an update, why are they answering the phone?
Are you ringing the general number or the ward ? Obviously over Christmas ,plus Covid it is pretty short staffed but the telephone is manned 24/7.
How can I get through to EGeneral?,IV a very sick husband in UCI but I can,t get through to
the hospital to find out how he is ! Anyone else having same prob ??
I think they are having problems with the phone system. I couldn't get through yesterday (monday) and when I visited the staff explained the problem. Sounds like problem is ongoing but worth hanging on to endless ringing and easier if you have extension number for ward which cuts out an even longer wait.
