I have had dealings with some of the people at that hospital. Most of them were Ok. A doctor Watson (If you can believe the name. That is what it says on the documents) described a knee ligament injury that left me unable to walk properly for over two years as "minor". Another one there was not very honest in his reporting. i have no idea if that kind of attitude has anything to do with me reporting a doctor to the GMC.
Megalodon....... It's free, but it's definitely not the best. Twice I've received medical treatment that not only made the problems worse, they were life-changing and permanent.
Chava Goldberg. Our Health Service is free, but is not very good. The truth is that we have a lot of elderly people in our hospitals that they cannot help any longer and need to go into a Care Home or Nursing Home. The trouble is there are not enough Care Home places and with an aging population, the government/NHS doesn't know what to do with these people and so staff and hospitals are being put under a lot of strain. We have younger people who have had operations cancelled at the last minute 4 or 5 times; people literally die waiting for their operations and it is always because of a lack of beds. I have been given an incorrect medical treatment twice in my life by the NHS because they cut corners and refuse to let people see a Specialist. I have suffered life-changing problems because of healthcare 'on the cheap' and I mistrust the NHS so much I pay to go private, which is very expensive here.
My dad was killed the same way in an ICU ward less than a month ago, in fact he was killed on the day this video was posted on here. My dad was murdered by MD doctor and a derivative of the drug morphine the doctor administered. All done in the guise of "health care". The ICU dr convinced my mom and sister and they agreed that my dad wouldn't get better after he had his hip replaced after he fell & broke it. The other doctor that did the operation came in to say his hip operation was a success BUT afterwards they tried removing his breathing tube for 10 - 15 minutes to see if he could breath on his own. Apparently he couldn't breath normally so they hooked up his breathing tube again. That in itself proves that my dad was deprived of oxygen for 10 - 15 minutes and it left him in a very bad state, almost in a coma. I think it was due to ALL the meds he was on also. In the ICU I was told my dad could hear us and we were encouraged to talk to him. I held my dads hand and he squeezed it a few times, it was a way of him trying to communicate with me. He also blinked his eyes when my sister talked/asked him questions. Before I go any further I should say I arrived at the hospital to find my dad on eleven IV medications. 11!! When I first saw the 11 IVs I asked why so many? I was told by the ICU staff the 11 IV medications were "keeping him alive" It is funny, my sister commented to the doctor that she never saw so many IV medications on one patient, she even said "It was quite impressive". SMH oh and my sister works in this hospital!! In front of my dad in the room he was in the MD tells us how he is going to make him more comfortable, in other words shorten his life... If my dad could hear what was being said it would have been horrific knowing what their plans were for him. Well less than 12 hours after the hip replacement surgery the ICU doctor said he was going to remove all the IVs a few at a time because they were now "damaging my dads organs". I thought they were keeping him alive?? The doctor then ordered the oxygen to be lowered to "normal" oxygen levels and only 10 minutes later the respiratory therapist came into the room a second time to "adjust" the O2 level again. Shouldn't patients get a few days to try and recover? My dad was so doped up on meds plus he was not given ANY water to drink or by IV (I asked if any of the IV's were water to hydrate him, the nurse said no), In my opinion he was dehydrated and malnourished. But get this, they gave him a sponge bath and washed his mouth out with mouthwash! wtf! Wouldn't want his bo or breath to offend anyone...SMH When the oxygen was lowered the second time this is when I got up and left the room, I was not going to watch them murder my dad. I went to the ICU waiting room to be alone, I cried openly and was very emotional. Thirty to forty minutes later I receive a text message from my wife saying "your dad is gone now" & that she (wife) was glad I left the room when I did. I was ready to punch out the dr at the time... I was upset that no one cared on what I had to say about the whole situation. I was the only one who stood up for my dad, I hope he heard me arguing with the ICU staff AND the family members there. I even stated to the nurse and dr not even a month prior to all this I researched how morphine was being used to "snow" patients in hospices. BTW hospices are where patients are sent to die also. Morphine reduces breathing and heart rate to the point of death! The nurse said " we are good at what we do here" I thought to myself , yeah killing people! My mom and sister actually thanked the doctor for what they did to my dad... they were and are totally blind to what happens in hospitals. PS I work in same hospital, but I've not returned to work since. Been there over 30 years, I don't know if I can ever go back to work there.
Hello, if your in the medical profession I guess you know the steps you need to take. In the uk I think the first step is to contact your local primary care trust who should be able to point you in the right direction. I would also research law firms who have dealt with similar situations and know what they are doing in this area of law. I would want access to his health records and the lawyer should be able to deal with this for you and get an expert opinion. Good luck don’t stop till you get answers.
My most sincere condolences to you. Such an horrific & heartbreaking thing! I have little faith & no trust in Drs. Especially those working in socialised medicine. I hope you're able to do something about this. We're all at their mercy.
Same as my friends mam and i bet there loads more people with simlar stories if there was a page were everyone could tell there stories we all would be shocked and worst is the hospitals get away with it and its been going on for years
I had to forcefully leave Medway hospital when it turned out I had pancreatitis. They left me dehydrated nil by mouth, I was in massive pain and they were telling me to be quiet people were trying to sleep because they didn't give me the antibiotics I needed. I discharged myself with a drip connected to me and got a lift to the very nice Pembury hospital who immediately gave me what I needed and stopped me from dying. If I had have stayed in Medway I would have died If I didn't stand my ground and say I am not putting up with this like some others might not.
There though some (know for a fact you're not saying all places, but some certainly are even I have heard York Hospitals just like that as well maybe not as bad as Medway (certainly if their Google+ reviews are anything to go by!) which are least the slightest bit better about the care they give (yes always there's stupid people in them though or people who couldn't care less) but where I have been treated for Familial Adenomatous Polyposis ever since I was circa 11 years old until now when I am 37 couldn't fault them for their clinical care. Their administration systems are annoying though I will admit that, is at the Leeds Teaching Hospitals I know what with the rest of the things I mean they are by no means perfect. Like I will firstly declare about the same hospital I am praising for the on the floor staff even consultants in the Colorectal Unit (honestly they're incredible!) but due to their stupid management the whole hospitals I was taken off the waiting list about 6 times for having a reversal of an ileostomy, was already having problems numerous times through the time I had it when I got unwell very unwell where I had to be hospitalised locally. I can't of course talk about other depts within the Leeds Teaching Hospitals but certainly their John Goligher Colorectal Unit's amazing!
They kill the old because they think they are difficult to maintain especially those with dementia. Same as in care homes. In a home I was working in Hampshire (Arbory residential care) home they were killing any resident that was challenging according to them,it was sickening.
I was in a job centre years ago. There was a woman there. She was complaining about the jobs they were referring her to. She said she was senior management and ran 5 care homes before she went to prison. I do wonder what for. It is a strange paradox they teach us to kill in the malitia, and then teach us to heal and save lives.
My partners father was 73 and went to hospital for tests related to his vascular disease; the initial prognosis was not good , he was given 2 years to live but having picked up 2 infections and pneumonia in the hospital he died 2 weeks later , just a month ago. Hospitals are deadly places to be for the elderly.
T Mitchell. I fully agree. I have had first hand experience of hospital staff, as an elderly person, when I was admitted into hospital a couple of years ago. I was bullied, untreated and ignored, so I kicked back and threatened legal action against one particular doctor who was obnoxious and arrogant. I was told by this doctor that he didn’t have the time to find out what was wrong with me!!! As I am familiar with legal matters, I proceeded with my complaint against the doctor and got as far as the ombudsman. I was later diagnosed by another neurologist at a different hospital as suffering from a rare form of dystonia.
Same. My grandfather fell down the stairs so he obviously went to hospital. He got a bit better and they sent him to a hospital nursing home where he ended up getting pneumonia and a while later, he died. To 5is day it still upsets me because I live in his house now because my dad remodels houses.
As a nurse I’m ashamed of all those so called medical professionals,especially the nurses that set up the diamorphine in the syringe driver without question🤔
So Right A lot of them I have read are also Podophiles So stay close to your Children at all times as you can not tell the Good ones by just looking at them
Alot have godlike egos. My ex-husband, a Dr, is a prime example of this. Always remember they are people first medical professionals second. Not all people are good people. This includes medical professionals. Do not be afraid of these people. Always speak up and stand up for yourself. A lot of Dr's learn to gaslight in their work. Be not afraid to go to the newspapers or contact the General Medical Council.
Exactly my point - I am a medical doctor and it is only legal to write what is effectively a DNR (do not resuscitate) if the person’s life is going to end naturally, and if there is a Living Will. A Living Will is not a legal document as such, but the contents should be respected by the doctor in charge of the patient! I have never seen an order “I am happy for nursing staff to confirm death” written down!!!!!! That statement implies that the person writing it (Dr Barton) was fully aware of her intentions!!!! As for - “shortening the waiting list for admission” to acute care hospitals - that is a travesty of justice!
I am shocked. I work in healthcare in New Zealand. The system doesn't spend thousands on surgeries like hip replacement for the person who is considered too sick for it. So that alone should have been a warning bell to the hospital and the nhs
I don't understand why this surprises anyone. Socialized medicine. An elderly population that is taking funds from young, healthy individuals who are "contributing" to society. I'm just surprised to took so long. Watch out people, this could be coming to a hospital near you.
Robin Hansen oh do you mean like my insurance company denying my surgery because they think they know better than my neurosurgeon? So do you think that’s BETTER. Idiot.
@@trishayamada807 my grand-nephew has a life-limiting disorder. He is receiving the one and only treatment available in the United States that can slow the progression of this disease. recently in the UK they have made the decision that they will not treat the children with this disorder because it is too expensive. that is what I am referring to. Not some insurance company denying you your treatment because they think they know more than your neurosurgeon.
all the staff who did not soeak out then they are just to blame as the doctor barton, hope they get the same treatment when they are older, n one has the right to end anyone's life. its murder.
its something that needs to have the full glare of a public enquiry however its the health ministers who know full well it happens and turn a blind eye. Remember that in many cases whistleblowers directly contact MPs who brush it under the carpet.
Maureen Wangati ...... care to expand on which 'minority groups' you refer to which make you fear UK hospitals, and provide examples of poor practice against these minority groups which supports your fear? I am a member of a 'minority group' and have had a number of in-patient stays in hospital ...... I have never received care/treatment which has been different to anyone else.
JohnPaul Dixon youre already biased so no point expounding. Like this media report shows admission of liability for injustices and medical malpractice is not a British thing.
@@africanqueenmo seems you're the one who's "biased". He related personal experience. You,on the other hand made an allegation/accusation with absolutely no citation. In other words, bs.
Now you can examine all the elderly being murdered in homes by withdrawing food and fluids until they die, they dont bother turning then and the pressure sores lead to sepsis .... looking forward to that investigation!!!!!
This is an absolutely staggering amount of deaths under these circumstances in one hospital. I worked in several Australian Hospitals from the late 70's through to the Nineties, we never used Diamorphine here, we used (LOW dose as possible) Morphine in Syringe Drivers, it was mainly used for end of life conditions such as end stage Cancer, end stage Heart Failure and such like, where death was inevitable, or after major surgery in some circumstances during the immediate post-op phase. Both the patient and Driver were closely monitored. It is not surprising to me Hospital Management ignored concerns from family and Nursing staff, sweeping it under the rug as they did. They were protecting the Doctor and frightened of the bad publicity and wrongful death lawsuits, the Police did nothing. Unbelievable.
Even though Barton retired, probably on a full pension, the GMC really ought to remove her licence to practice. There's nothing to prevent her from coming out of retirement and if she is still a licenced physician there's every chance she could secure employment elsewhere, particularly as it seems a prosecution isn't forthcoming.
She anticipated it apparently and relinquished registration: "Following the ruling Dr Barton decided to retire and on 9 March 2011 she relinquished her registration with the GMC." BBC.
My mum and dad worked all their life, never asked for nothing, at 85 my dad had a stroke and dementia and my poor mum looked after him and still asked for nothing, he was taken to hospital with a bump to his head and instantly put on palliative care, incurable you see so you can be killed for that, you do not need to be suffering or end of life just incurable even years left to live like my dad..Costing the government to much!!! Dad was left in a corner to rot, infected, drugged up and nil by mouth while the family begged for help, they put a dol order on my father as we said we were taking him to another hospital and contacting the newspaper, so we had no legal leg to stand on to take him out to show anyone what they had done, they did not want that...His ct scans were negative and he was no different to when he went in... i wish we payed private, even when elderly , vulnerable and babies should be taken care of....He was killed slowly over 11 weeks then finally overloaded, he suffered then was drowned!!!! My mother suffered with him and died several weeks later as a direct result..... we are burying them both together next week, no one deserves this mum and dad were kind loving people who would do anything for anyone had daughters and grandchildren and they loved life, how dare anyone take a second of their lives and play god....SO F***K the nhs we know what you are doing even though some just do not see or believe it until it happens to them!!! Fact they are killing people! 1
Sorry for your dual loss. I have seen my uncle today and he passed away later. It was unnecessary. The hospitals get cash for patients killed this way. It's a business.
On the mental health unit I've been on, some of us are reluctant to take strong or sedating medication even though the nurses and doctors have good intentions. More often than not, we get admitted onto the ward when we are confused/distressed/erratic and it can get on people's nerves (although it can't be helped). Fortunately, this ward does not issue medication irresponsibly but it does make you wonder how many wards/hospitals do/have done!! I hope the poor patients are at peace and the culprits get what they deserve.
And my mum was given an injection that we were told would kill her. 2 days later she was given it anyway and lost her life. We’re still fighting with liars 🤬🤬
While the NHS can be a great thing its also the case there are pockets which are highly corrupt. They are protected by a dedicated NHS legal department and those individuals who do try to speak out end up losing everything. You only have to look at how they treat their own staff when they highlight wrongdoing so its no surprise they treat the public with contempt.
The mathematics of this is beginning to look obvious. In all jobs you get people who are not very good, or useless, but you need the numbers and others take up the slack. Because of the enormity of these acts the legal consequences are serious. Then there is 'classic group behaviour. For example, I wrote off over a hundred thousand pounds worth of stock once because a worker photocopied an electronic circuit diagram the wrong way up and put it in the test manual. It was just electronic components and it was a large company. The man only had one eye and he was a nice guy. We all knew he did it, but no one reported him, or me. Some building contracts i took on, such as chiminy repairs, I go back and check on for ten years in case they are failing because if they fail and a brick falles off and kills some one, instead of a lot of people trying to cover for me there will be building contractors happily pointing out what was wrong with it so they can get the contracts, regardless if there where, or not. As an experienced worker with the legal qualification that goes with that, i would know the variables of the situation, but not the customer, although they could look them up on the internet these days. Joe public, especially the working class educational level can be dangerously credulous of their prescribed authority figures, such as medical doctors and so on. Car mechanics need to think twice these days before they mis inform a customer because too many people know about cars. Too many people have access to antomy books and medical proceedures these days, but we pay more attention to our cars.
My father went into hospital to have a vein in his neck sorted after finding he had high cholesterol. His operation was meant to make blood flow better. He had a stroke on the operating table which left him basically paralysed. He spent a month in hospital and in that time he contracted pneumonia, and finally MRSA. He died there. My mother also suffered in the same hospital. She had a bad heart, but this is not what killed her, she contracted septicaemia. She died there. Whenever any family member have to go to hospital I’m so worried they won’t come out.
My kids were told they had cholesterol 5 year old and a 2 year old they were given statins which deformed there bones the doctor in charge said its ok...and told my kids they were going to die at 19....
Shame on them! I remember the hospital my father was in giving him medication that almost cost him his life when they misunderstood his English. I went right off at them for that and made them sort it out fast.
The problem with trying to get people like this to take responsibility and show remorse for there actions is they don't care what they have done. As long as they get away without any legal ramifications they are never going to admit they did anything wrong. And if they are held legally responsible there only regret is that they were caught. This is a type of criminal that cannot be rehabilitated there narcissistic heartless compulsive liars with zero empathy for anyone who in their own mind can do no wrong.
Those murderers would get life without parole in the US and sued in civil court. UK laws and penal system are so limp. Inexcusable. That hospitable wasn't even shut down, I bet.
@@OlviMasta77 "@Mr K LCP?" The Liverpool Care Pathway. It was based on a report by the Evercare Hospice and Palliative Care Unit, owned by the United Health Group in Minnetonka, MN.

Nope, still going. They shut the good one down. It was military and the ministry of defence wanted to sell it. It is in an expensive area and prime property for marinas. Gosport is one of the wealthier areas in the south of england. it has a high percentage of snobs.
Yes we had a similar nurse do something like this here in Ontario Canada.. why does this only happen to the elderly why do we treat our grown folks like shit... clearly there is a societal isssue at work and it spans language barriers and nations it’s a human illness to treat elderly with Contempt when they need the upmost honor and love
Think about it! The elderly and the young don't contribute anything to capitalism. So what good are they to the coffers of the government? None! Government sees them as a drain & therefore it doesn't matter if they're no longer here.
@@joannbowden6220 your right and similarly for us veterans. A man with no legs can't walk to WORk and pay taxes so why prioritize them.. But the sad thing is all the while the live and Become elderly the society they contributed to for decades now puts them in a dungeon hidden Away and with any kind of individual.. I agree its a society greediness but to me it looks like greediness from society has become the Hallmark of individual character. We all want more and not enough of us are prepared to sacrifice their time for their own parents... Its not just in the west .. Old folk homes are growing in Asia and elderly parents fend for themselves as their adult children fight ferociously in the global and dog eat dog competition for money and resources. The world needs to respect both the Old and young and veterans alike... But they don't get paid to pay attention.
@@itsolivier I know this to be so true. I was a nurse b4 I became disabled and I worked at quite a few nursing homes. Sad, horrible, disgusting are just a few of the adjectives that come to mind. Our elders just basically institutionalized & left to die.
@@joannbowden6220 correction. It's not capitalism that causes this. It's socialism! Socialised healthcare requires "thinning the heard". Don't be a fool! You won't be a useful idiot all of your life. You'll graduate to a useless eater.
i know of someone who went to hospital cause he had a chest infection which affected his diabetes and several times this doctor had advised his sister it was best to allow him to die and his sister told the doctor NO
When my grandmother was in hospital a nurse said a similar thing, she wasn't given oxygen when she needed it. The nurse was talking to my sister, also a nurse and said it wasn't a bad way to go. My sister agreed. I questioned her and she explained to me inadequate oxygen can give feelings of euphoria. I protested. She recovered and was discharged.
The questions now to be asked: is this a systemic problem? What is the status in all other UK hospitals and what are the independent safe-guards in situ and from outside each hospital from active life shortening treatment (e.g. by syringe-driver delivered diamorphine) under the cover of being "kept comfortable"? As this has not been prosecuted, it is highly likely to remain a systemic problem across the country. Watch-out for your elders!
Thankyou Garth. Ive mentioned before, my Father had the syringe driver inserted. He was gone 6 hours later. The nurse, my cousin incidentally, told us it was just vitamins! No-one asked or consulted us or told us what it entailed. We were seriously expecting Dad to be discharged soon after. I know of at least 2 other families who experienced similar. I think your right - systemic across the board!
It’s not just the elderly that have had “their lives shortened” in that system, Alfie Evans and Charlie Gard are victims too as I’m sure are many others. No one has the right to determine who’s life is not worth living!
She needs to be in prison where every other serial killer resides...the fact she isn't means they, who block charges, need to he put up for charges of conspiracy to aid and abett 1st degree murder!
This is absolutely horiffic now i am terrified of going to hospital even after a massive heart attack two years ago. And what about all these medications they give us, one minute statins are bad dont take them splashed all over the newspapers now they are safe I for one wont after i read what they can cause

My mother was first given so much hydration that she swelled up like a balloon when she first entered Hospital Then she was taken to her own room and given a pump with what was at the time Diamorphine like all the rest.She would then be refused water and food and after a distresssing 6 days she hung on(No water)until she passed away Firstly,I would like to know how many other peoples relatives were treated in the same manner being isolated from other patients in thier own room.How many others were refused minimum water(not even a drip,whereas she was given multiple Bag on entry to the hospital,Cant this weaken Kidney function?) I am convinced in my mind that the health service has a lot to answer for in terms of this ``Liverpool Pathway``type treatments of elderly patients during decades Its nothing short of Euthenasia and a disgraceful way for taxpayers to end thier lives.
Yes it is still happening all around the world.. I think it is about, 'more patients, more money'... greedy evil buggers!! I hope families get full justice.
There needs to be a National Inquiry. How do you have stats like that and no one at the NHS catches it? People dying in numbers right after transferring for rehab after surgery? Nursing staff, those on the front lines and they're not listened to? It's not like this is hospice care - the patients were considered worthy enough candidates for surgery so why would any sensible physician or reasonable nurse prescribe end-of-life care or managed death? No, from a budgetary viewpoint let alone the fact that the families had not been consulted nor consented, this has institutional killing written all over it! A national disgrace. As for the only nurse that would agree to speak on camera; thank God she's retired! When a nurse refers to her hospital and the ward she commands as a "dumping ground" , she should recognize it's time to switch careers and she should be removed from the register. The doctor should have been fired, struck from the register and charged with multiple counts of murder. Not far off of the "Final Solution".

@@trishayamada807 I was watching over a friend in a hospital when a very dead young patient was discovered by one of the cleaning staff. When I cornered the hospitalist on the floor he looked at me and stated the following: This is the easiest way to die in a hospital. You arrive either very sick or unconscious and are unable to feed yourself. The staff have a list of patients that they care for and this list generally starts with the easiest to care for to the ones that need more care. As their shift ends generally the more complicated or critical patients have not been seen. You would think that they would then be at the top of the list for the next shift but the next shift goes to the top of the list again and so on and so forth. They are still seen by several staff that put food trays in front of them and remove them without saying that they have not touched their food. They are seen by the cleaning staff and others. The doctors (hospitalists) check their basic vitals and makes notes on their charts but does not take the time to see them or check if they have regained consciousness. So I guess that everyone that still thinks that hospitals are NOT dangerous places staffed by individuals that are just putting in time you have never watched over someone until they were past the danger point. You would be appalled by how little a really ill person is seen during the day let alone night. This is not the only way you can die in a hospital just the easiest one.
@@kilt2024 You must be a nurse. Guess you trust everyone you work with so much that you would let them care for a sick infant. Oh, never mind, you already do. In your world when a doctor or nurse is found to have a drug or mental problem the amount of effort that is taken to cover it up is amazing. They get to take little paid holidays and go right back to work.
Laurie dill-Kocher again anecdotes are not proof. Try again. Your personal story is just that. I can counter with my elderly mother in the hospital 3 times this year and she had excellent care. Sheesh.
Institutional murder, the soldier fought for a country that murdered him. In Israel, the hospital staff go to extreme lengths to sustain and preserve life, Israeli nurses will tell you. A significant cultural difference.
Wow, this story shocks me. What kinda country allows this to happen to its citizens? And I refer to not just the people who do the murders, but the people to don't act to stop them. What a disgusting country to live in.
