Cockoos Nest
Letter of complaint
Dear Sir/Madam,
I am writing this letter to inform you of my dissatisfaction with the Psychiatric Hospital in Oregon.
Firstly, I myself have spent some time in this institution and have had to face the monotony of the daily life there. The patients are forced to complete the same boring tasks and activities every day without any variety.
Furthermore being a patient at the psychiatric hospital means complete isolation from the outside world as visitors are hardly ever allowed and no such thing as spare time outside of the hospital exists. To add to that, it is not even allowed to follow sports like the baseball world championship on TV. For me the hospital could be compared to a prison, as there no contact to the outside world is allowed either.
Thirdly, I have to complain about the nurses, especially nurse Mildred Ratched. The inhuman treatments the patients receive by the nurses on a daily basis do not add to the comfort of staying at the hospital, but make the days even more dull and boring. You could even say that a few patients might face the possibility that next to being mentally ill, they might get depressions as a result of the icy treatment by the staff. Furthermore, the nursing staff is also completely medically incompetent, as the medicines described to the patients by the nurses are randomly picked and most of the time not even necessary.
I am afraid that if these serious issues are not dissolved immediately, I might have to be forced to take legal action in this matter.
I look forward to hearing from you shortly.
Yours faithfully,
R.P. McMurphy
