Hospitals

13 years ago

Hi

My husband is very ill in the New Mowasat hospital with a severe lung/chest infection and has been there since saturday evening. They do lots of tests and xrays everyday to monitor him. Unfortunatly he has only made a slight improvement and at times we have felt that they are not being as pro active as they could be and trying to extend his illness so they get more money. From what I have heard, that seems to be what all private hospitals do.
Now my brother in law has arrived from the UK and saying that we should move my husband to another hospital as the new mowasat is not getting him better and has got my husband thinking he should move. I am worried that moving him will mean that the whole process will start all over again and these 5 days will be wasted.

Can anyone recommend any other hospitals and whether they think he should move or not? I have no one else to ask :-(

Thanks for your help and reading this long post
