Personally those are fine categories. I am a bit worried to hear of an organization "Not having time for complainers" because that would have to be code for "Don't tell us when we do anything wrong."

Narcissists act like nothing happened once the damage is done. They expect you to move on, smile, and treat them the same while refusing to acknowledge what they put you through. They want the comfort of having you around without facing the consequences of how they treated you.

Hip fracture outcome is a bellwether for a whole hospital. It relies on prompt processes, good surgery and anaesthesia, management and avoidance (when possible) of delirium and other complications, ortho-geriatrician input, nutrition, physio, OT and effective discharge planning.

A 37-year-old man with a severe muscle-wasting disease has been trapped in a hospital for more than 13 months because of a dispute over his care.
Ravi Mehta has Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy and used to receive NHS funding that allowed him to hire his own carers and to live at home.
Now that has been taken away from him, and he is threatened with being put in a care home.

Thousands of people were censored and demonised for saying old people were being sacrificed!
And now after an ‘enquiry’ costing taxpayers at least £342 MILLION!! …. We have been proved right.
Sadly, so many lovely grandparents and parents will never know how hard we fought for them.
