In January 2021 my mum had a small fall which resulted in a trip to Chester Hospital.  
The level of care I witnessed my mum receive from staff at that hospital was nothing short of a travesty.
The hospital failed to give my mum the appropriate care that everyone of us has a given right to. 
The hospital failed to give my mum appropriate breathing equipment and when I was met by a member of  staff to speak about my mums condition I was told she was fine, contrary to how my mum sounded during phone calls.

I put a complaint in to PALS about the member of staff  because she was so arrogant and uneducated , I feared I was being lied to about my mums condition and knew a failure to provide a bi pap mask would result in poisonous gas build up on the lungs. Later, results showed that I was correct and my mums poor speech was a result of a suffering from toxicity build up on the lungs.

Because my mum had a fall a few nights before, she was in excruciating pain and could not get out of bed. I spoke to the sister on the ward and she said my mum had refused to get out of bed.
The day after I was on the phone to my mum and heard the same nurse that I put the complaint in to pals about, forcing my mum out of bed against her will to get into a wheel chair to go down for an X-ray. My mum was crying in pain "please can you take me down to the X-ray in my bed" the nurse replied "no Mrs white you can get into your chair"  

I was contacted by the Hospital a week later and was told my mum could not get out of bed because she had a fractured spine. 7th lumber fracture. That nurse forced my mum out of bed with a fractured spine to get into the wheel chair against her will. Or did the nurse cause the fracture? Also during this stay the nurse lost my mums front teeth, taking away my mums ability to do one of the most important things in life which is to eat a balanced diet. I made a complaint to PALS but did not get my mums teeth replaced and no one was held accountable for the bad treatment my mum received during this stay. 
A few months down the line and my mum was making a slow but steady recovery at home, but unfortunately had another fall which resulted in another trip to A&E. My mum was due out of Hospital a week later but unfortunately  the afternoon of her departure blood results showed that she had caught pneumonia in the hospital so she had to stay in, until it was treated. 
As time passed my mum started to sound like she was deteriorating again and all family was declined any visiting rights to see my mum and eventually a week later the doctor let me into the hospital to visit my mum on my own, for an hour because the doctor did not know why the pneumonia would not go. What I witnessed that night and the following days was akin to murder. 
As I went into the room to see mum, I was astonished because she was lay flat In bed on a drip. My mum had c.o.p.d and heart failure meaning that she should never be lay flat because her saturation levels would go down by 30%.  I asked mum why she was lay flat but she did not know. I asked the nurse to put my mums bed up straight away and  if my mum had any food or water. The nurse told me she hadn't had any food or water but it's ok because she is on a drip. I asked my mum if she would like a drink of water and then got the nurse to get her a jug of water.  I witnessed my mum drink a full glass of water unaided. At this point I had a feeling my mum did not have long to live because of the murderous way she had been left, so I got close family on the phone to say goodbye. Upon leaving the ward I spoke to the sister on my way out to ask "exuse me, I've just walked in to see my mum lay flat, why is she lay flat?" Condescendingly the sister of a respiratory ward  quite abruptly and sharply said to me "there is no evidence to suggest being lay flat causes the pneumonia to spread"  my reply was "no but evidence suggests my mums saturation levels are 30% lower when lay flat so how is she ever going to fight of pneumonia" this is common knowledge in respiratory and I had a sister of a respiratory ward trying to argue basic facts every respiratory nurse knows. I also asked why she was on a drip for food and water when I witnessed her drink out of a glass unaided. 
I left the hospital and got straight back intouch with PALS and even called my mums respiratory nurse  the morning after to get her to tell the hospital the significance of making my mums prognosis better if she is lay upright. Its common knowledge in repiritory that any patient with copd on home Oxygen should be lay upright, especially in heart failure while trying to fight off pneumonia. So why on a respiratory ward was my mum left in a room on her own in that condition  on a drip which causes a massive strain on the heart. I managed to get a phone call with the Doctor late that morning to get answers as to why my mum was lay flat on a drip in that condition. The doctor said she would put a sign up next to my mums bed to warn staff not to lay my mum flat. I could not believe what I was hearing, the doctor has to put a sign up on a respiratory ward to tell the nurses something that is common knowledge. At that point I told the Doctor "if you don't let me into this hospital then I am going to come in with a camera and show the country how you are treating your patients" the Doctor said "I'm sorry I know you want the best care for your mum, so I will allow you to come in alone and care for her"  I didn't want the best care, I just wanted appropriate care that we all have a right to. I was elated and getting a bag of drinks ready for my mum to take into the hospital and look after her appropriately. An hour passed and I had a call from the hospital to say my mum had taken a turn I should make my way there immediately. 
I arrived at the hospital and walked into the room to see 3 doctors next to my mums bed and my mum was upright in the chair with eyes open but did not seem vacant. I asked the doctors "what have you done to my mum"  the doctors apologised and said there is nothing they can do because my mum is end stage cancer. I could not believe what I was hearing, my mum had never been treat as a cancer patient and there was never any evidence of cancer present other then a scan 3 years before. 
I said "how do you know she has cancer" they said they just do because of her skin colour. I was then told I have an hour and a half to get any close family in before they turn my mums machines off. This was all said infront of my dying mum.  
I could not get my head around how they can decline any further treatment on my mum on the basis she had a disease there was never any evidence of. I had seen my mum in a worse condition then this in respiratory failure a few years before. That time she was  20 minutes from having life support switched off but she came back around and lived a number of years later. 
As time passed and family arrived I was holding my mums hand and could feel her very faintly squeezing as I held it. I could not be sure at first if this was involuntary muscle spasms but then I started to ask my mum "if you can hear me then please squeeze my hand". 
My mum used every bit of energy she could muster to squeeze my hand when I asked her, so I recorded on my phone my mum moving her little finger when I asked.

I wanted evidence to support my mum still had the capacity to follow my instruction and she did. I requested to see the Doctor again and was made to feel special because she had clocked off shift 20 minutes before. 
I told the Doctor my mum was squeezing my hand and asked her to resume treatment but she said she would not. I then told the Doctor she is not turning my mums machines off because I would class that as uthenasia. The doctor said she would not resume treatment but would not turn my mums machines off, contrary to what I was told hours before. When the doctor left I was arguing in front of mum with some family members on whether or not mum should have treatment resumed or not. It then became clear to us all that mum could hear everything and was getting visibly distressed at us arguing infront of her. 
As time passed 4/5 hours after having all treatment removed and being told she was having her machines turned off my niece who was visiting and works in palliative care said that my mum wanted a drink of water. So we requested a sponge on a stick with a bowl of water. 
My mum was pouting desperately to get water of the end of that sponge to get some hydration in her mouth, sucking on it desperately. This just did not make sense, my mum was showing clear signs of a will to live and life. She was following family members in the room with her eyes, desperate for some water that wouldn't have been on offer had my niece not been there. I got another Doctor to try and resume treatment but still they would not. 
More. time passed and my niece said that mum wanted the toilet we should ask the nurses to come in. Two nurses came into the room with a pan and my mum tried to get out of bed because she still had the dignity not to want two strangers between her legs with a room full of family. The nurses held my mum down and said "it's ok mrs white we will put it between your legs you don't have to get out of bed" it became apparent that my mum was far from dead at this point and was showing clear signs of life and a will to live. 
I begged another Doctor then at 10.07 at night the third time and they finally resumed treatment on my dying mum. They gave her a nubulizer and a drip for fluids. My mum was making a turn around. Her saturation levels were not death defying and the sister on the ward who had my mum lay flat the night before did not know if my mum was going to make a recovery or not. Family were positive and it seemed that mum might make a turn around. I stayed with my mum all night and didn't witness nurses take one observation. My mum was left in the room to die. 
The morning after I had been looking at end of life on my phone because I felt that my mums eyes started to look glazed. It said that end of life patients need to feel like they can pass away if they are at the end of life. I  felt guilt ridden and jumped into my mums bed to put my arms around her the first time I was there because of equipment. I said mum if you need to go I will be ok I love you. At that point my mums hands turned blue, the nurse came in and I asked why her hands had gone blue. "It's ok mr white the Doctor is coming now" she replied. A few minutes later the Doctor came in and asked if I minded if he listened to her chest. It dawned on me that my mum had just died in my arms when I gave her my blessing to go. 
I was in a state of shock and upset on my own in the room holding my dead mum. When I took my mums bi pap mask off I was sickened to see it hadn't been cleaned the whole time she was there. The inside was covered in excretions that had been coming out my mums mouth the weeks before. I was distraught that she had that mask on her face and even used bad language in the private room because I could not believe the mask was not clean. A young Doctor then threatened to kick me out of the hospital and decline me of spending any further time with my dead mum. 
I was contacted by the Hospital in the following days and told that they wanted to put lung cancer on my mums death certificate underlying factors pneumonia. I explained that the only time the trust was ever 100% sure my mum had cancer is when they wanted to decline her of any further treatment. My mum was never treat as a cancer patient and there was never any evidence my mum had cancer. The hospital tried to persuade me from having an autopsy done telling me that there was no need in an autopsy because it would not change anything. I went against my mums dying wishes of not having an autopsy because after everything I witnessed from Chester Hospital I could not let them get away with how they have treated my mum. 
After an autopsy the coroners findings was that my mum died of a myocardial infarction underlying factors emphysema. Cancer was not present and cancer did not play any part in my mums death.  
My mum died from a heart attack after having any further care neglected. She was declined any further treatment on the basis of having a disease there was never any evidence off and Chester Hospital tried to cover up the facts around my mums death.
Our once great institution that we know as the NHS was made to serve the people of this country but unfortunately it's has became apparent that the NHS at Chester Hospital only serves itself and the staff within the institution. 
I am currently putting this forward to the parliamentary ombudsman for a proper investigation. 
I put through all the facts and evidence in a letter to PALS and there second sentence in the letter Joe  Bloggs  says.

I regret that the care/treatment provided to your mum was not to the level you had expected.

This is abuse in itself and an attempt to play down the atrocious care my mum receieved by trying to make out the care/ treatment was not  to my expectations. This shows how corrupt the NHS has become at Chester Hospital. The level of care my mum recieved was not good enough for a dog. The level of care my mum received was far below the standard set in NHS pledges on the governments own website.  I want this story sharing because I was told to go public with it by the NHS healthwatch. I am urging any people with relatives or who have experienced the same problems as my  mum and family to get intouch with me. There needs to be a Public enquiry about the tretament of patients by staff  at Chester Hospital and I believe that PALS is there to serve the institustion not the patients. The levels of corruption  at Chester Hospital need to be exposed. This trust also failed my mum on  the most basic fundamentals of care, which is to keep someone clean and hydrated. The main risk associated with a dirty bi pap mask is pneumonia and my mum was due to get out of hospital a week before she caught pneumonia in that hospital. How many other elderly c.o.p.d patients have been  left in a room lay flat to die by that sister?  It was a murderous approach and I witnessed first hand  how they treat my mum. How many patients at Chester Hospital are refused further treatment on the basis they have a disease without any evidence? How many false deaths are Chester hospital happy to record without any evidence ever being present?  How is this in the public's interest?
Chester Hospital serves itself and that has become apparent because so far there has been no accountability for what's happened and I don't know a career that enables you to put someone's life in danger that allows you to get away with it so freely. I am not buttering this up I'm stating the facts. I urge any elderly or family members to get in contact with me about similar issues they have experienced at Chester Hospital because it is time for change. Why aren't doctors and nurses held accountable when they are putting our loved ones lives at danger by not doing there jobs properly. This has to stop and some staff at Chester Hospital need to be held accountable for there sickening vile treatment of some of its patients. While we are being declined visiting rights, nurses and doctors are able to do anything they want and that is wrong on so many levels. Had I been allowed into the hospital at an earlier date my mum wouldn't have been wearing that filthy bi pap mask. I would have made sure she had the treatment every one of us has a right to.  The public need to be made aware of what Chester Hospital now thinks is acceptable for its vulnerable  patients because it is not. 

I would also like to thank anyone that signs and shares. If anyone has had  the same experience at Chester hospital then please email me at mrgtwhite87@gmail.com this will help in starting a public enquiry into the failings by staff at this hospital. 

I would also like to confirm that everything I have said in the petition involving staff and my mum are based on FACTS. I am accountable for everything I have said.
