Brilliant in all aspects
January 30, 2020
The hospital staff has been brilliant in all aspects. My daughter was diagnosed with photo-sensitivity and they have provided all the support they can. We visit our consultant once a month.
Relatively positive experience today

Relatively positive experience today. Otherwise have to wait for at least 30 mins. Clinical team provided all the information we required. We were referred to other service on time. Very happy and satisfied from the service received.

My son had his operation here twice and we have received great help & support. Today our appointment was at 9am but we were seen at 10:30 am it’s a long wait. Doctors gave us extra time nearly 45 mins and explained everything very well. so well compensated for a long wait.
Staff care and communication excellent
January 22, 2020
Attended lung function, dental and stem cell transplant team for preparatory tests leading to a stem cell transplant. Long wait in the main outpatients – always! Staff care, compassion, communication excellent throughout care. Involve our daughter throughout care, yet consider if she should be involved. Provide a wide range of care, considering all physical, mental and social needs of her and us as a family. Neurologist has given up her time and opened channels of direct communication to us to help coordinate care. Communication with local GP was more difficult than it should be.
Waiting times are a lot

My daughter caught an infection herpes she has eczema, doctor diagnosed straight away. I came at 10 am she didn’t get medication till 6pm. Waiting times are a lot. Experiences with nurses – some very helpful and good with my child. One nurse was not helpful.
Takes a while to get an appointment

Takes a while to get an appointment. Ongoing issue that’s not getting resolved.
The staff were helpful and attentive
January 15, 2020
My granddaughter was admitted to the burn unit. The staff were helpful and attentive. My granddaughter was seen promptly and we continued to attend weekly, following till being discharged. The children’s facilities were good (Toys and colouring etc.). the length of time we had to wait for a blood test was well over an hour and worse is the pharmacy onsite.
Long waiting time for disabled children
January 15, 2020
Children’s hospital best staff and clean & tidy. Waiting time too long, especially for disabled children. Very hard for families to manage the long waiting time. They should consider for disabled children waiting time.
Hospital toilets are not very hygienic

I was at the Children’s hospital today showing my friend moral support. I have to say the toilets are not very hygienic. The standards could be a bit better. We have to keep in mind infection control and other issues .
