Bound, hungry and thirsty: Relatives of a 104-year-old woman with accusations against the Vidin hospital (photos)

A 104-year-old woman was discharged with bruises from a hospital in Vidin after several days of treatment for a kidney disease. This is what her granddaughter alerted in the “Spotted in Vidin” Facebook group, where she also published embarrassing photos of the old woman.

“Are you satisfied, little souls, who kept a 104-year-old woman tied to her four limbs for 5 days? Brag – you won’t have another 104-year-old patient! Gastroenterology, Department of Internal Medicine, St. Petka Hospital, Vidin. 5 days no you move, you don’t eat for 5 days, you shiver with cold for 5 days, you leave the hospital barely alive (according to the epicrisis, however – WITH IMPROVEMENT). companions, offers lies and offers deterioration of health!

My grandmother was admitted with a kidney infection on April 16, 2024. (Referred for hospitalization by a nephrologist). I can’t say anything about the stay, because they don’t allow dating – there’s a reason! I can tell how she was taken out of the hospital facility! That is, I will show! Limbs bruised from tying, emaciated to the point that her fork weighs! Immobilized by lying down! Lying down for 5 days at 104 a woman?! What more does she need?

My grandmother was admitted with pain, but absolutely contact, feeding herself, getting out of bed by herself and sitting in the wheelchair by herself! (It is there in the objective state of the anamnesis).

I ring the ward, pick up one of all the NON-humans there! I explain who I am, and of course who my grandmother is. I ask why is she tied up? The answer was that was it just a FIX because she JUMPED into bed? Yes, she JUMPED and had to keep from falling! Okay! Great, my grandma is jumping now! I explain that she doesn’t have the strength to lift her glass and the answer was: “How do you expect such an old woman to get out of the hospital?”. And why didn’t she eat or drink water for 5 days? On the contrary, the NON-human tells me, she is looked after very well here – and hangs up on me.

I rang again and whatever was on my soul came out of my mouth.

So, I wish the NON-HUMANS a day when they are helpless – just as good to look at as to jump out of bed!

PS A report has been filed where it should!” wrote Desislava Borisova in the group “Noticed in Vidin”.

“We took her home, but she was inadequate, she was only looking at one point,” added the patient’s grandson, Emil Trifonov, to bTV. “She told us they only gave her water with a spoon and nothing else. She couldn’t drink from a cup or a water bottle. We brought her bananas and other things that we know she likes. But no one gave her food,” he is emphatic.

The 104-year-old woman is better now, but her relatives claim that she was frozen and stiff.

“At times, the patient was psychomotorically agitated as a result of a previous brain stroke and cortical atrophy. In order to carry out the treatment measures – such as intravenous infusions and the prescription of antispasmodics and antibiotics, the arm was temporarily fixed. The bruises shown do not correspond to this immobilization (fixation – b.r.). The bruises are probably from changes that are characteristic of such an old person,” explained Dr. Bogdan Tomov, director of the medical facility.
