Is there any way you can get a bed in the hospital the night before your surgery? Given that Orange Base is only a couple of years old I was bloody appalled at the lack of thought that went into it, so I wouldn't be at all surprised to find they can't do that.
My Mum was in a palliative situation there 18 months ago, survived a little longer than was convenient and put me in a position I had to find enough money to get her into Gosling Creek or take her home. No palliative care unit in a major hospital? WTF? That they have to outsource scans to a company that can't cope with disability, sadly, doesn't surprise me.
