Summary

Mr C complained about the care and treatment provided to his wife (Mrs A) when she was an in-patient at Victoria Hospital. Mr C complained that the board failed to appropriately adjust her medication, that they did not provide her with reasonable physical rehabilitation, and that they unreasonably assessed her as needing a higher level of at home care, which Mr C said delayed Mrs A's discharge from hospital.
