Hi Lion Queen,Re: Wretched hospital food
Hey Bakerman. I am a stent jockey also. (PLus a pace maker defib implant) Been in hospital quite a few times over the last 2 decades. I have paid into private health insurance all my working life and still do in retirement. So from luck and plenty of years of work, I can afford private hospital. They give you a menu and the food I have to say is pretty good. Although I am never very hungry when I'm in there. Dunno why. I've heard there is no such joy in the public hospital next door. So crap hospital food seems to be a universal thing. But to be fair most dietitians recommend bland food, pretty devoid of spices etc for inpatients that have had any kind of surgical procedure or invasive treatment. I was told ( behind the palm) once by a nurse that it was as much to do with producing as inoffensive stools as possible as to anything else. Maybe she was pulling my leg but it's logical I guess.Re: Wretched hospital food

Hope you are feeling better now Bakerman .Re: Wretched hospital food
Your lucky to get any. When i was in hospital the food was on the swing over bed table. before I had enough strength to sit up to eat it the cleaner swung it out the way and didn't put it back. Consequently I missed a few meals , worse because I was so weak it took ages to sit up and most times couldn't anyway without help, no hospital staff around to do that simple task. Also all the tubes into me got in the way as well They just stood around the nurses desk most of the time.Thread Tools | |
