Andy Shearman says Musgrove Park Hospital in Taunton is working in 'organised chaos'.

"It's a human right to have family life and for her to have contact with me," said Mr Shearman

A spokesperson apologised that Mrs Shearman "has not had the experience she should expect from our services" and said the trust was in touch with the family. During the rest of her stay she was allowed one visitor for one hour a day, which her husband said meant, with other family wanting to visit, he often did not see her more than once or twice a week.It also meant he often could not speak to her doctors for updates and struggled to get information over the phone.

He said he was not aware at the time why there was a hold up in Mrs Shearman being discharged, but said the hospital appeared to be short staffed.
