NHS treats wounded soldiers badly.

Wounded troops accuse NHS of 'appalling treatment' - Sunday Telegraph article

Extract:

"Troops wounded in the line of duty in Iraq and Afghanistan have made a series of complaints about the appalling treatment they have been receiving on NHS wards.

Letters sent to Ministry of Defence officials and health chiefs reveal the despair of service personnel and their families at the level of care in civilian hospitals.

One letter details how Jamie Cooper, 18, the youngest soldier wounded in Iraq, was forced to spend a night lying in his own faeces after staff allowed his colostomy bag to overflow.


On another occasion his medical air mattress was allowed to deflate, leaving him in “considerable pain” overnight despite an alarm going off, according to the letter from his parents.

Others complain of pain relief arriving hours late, wrong tablets being given out and MRSA infections. "
