Highly satisfied with treatment explanation

January 21, 2020
Highly satisfied with treatment explanation and waiting times. The only issue is we can’t see same doctor all the time. I came here four times and seen four different doctors.

Thank you for taking the time to share both positive and constructive feedback for our hospital. We are pleased to see you felt that your treatment explanation was clear, and that you felt the waiting times were satisfactory. We are conscious that patients sometimes see more than one doctor, pending on clinical availability and are keen to encourage continuity for you, if you would like to speak with a member of the PALS team regarding this, please do not hesitate to contact us at bwc.pals@nhs.net alternatively, we will share your feedback with our Clinical Director to ensure they are aware of this issue. We wish you all the best for the future, the Patient Experience Team.

Hospital pharmacy located at the rear end, hard to reach, very small space, always over crowded. Pharmacy needs to be relocated and refurbished.

Cares been really good.

December 17, 2019
Cares been really good. Staff looked after me really well. I was inpatient for ten days for liver disorder. Room was cold and drafty - Windows need replacing. Otherwise really looked after. Food and drinks were ok. Buzzed came really quickly.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. I am sorry to hear that the room was cold, and that the windows need replacing - we will share this with our ward and the estates team. I am pleased to see that you were well looked after by the staff, however, and that they came quickly when they were buzzed to you. Thank you again for sharing ways we can improve our service. Best Wishes, the Patient Experience Team.

This Hospital is good

December 17, 2019
I have had a baby at this hospital before. I was induced and the hospital was short staffed at the time; for this reason, my induction was paused and then resumed again after two days. It was a very traumatic experience for me and therefore I am opting for a planned C-Section the next time round.
However, having said that, I am still convinced the hospital is good as all my other experiences here have been great.

Thank you for taking the time to share this feedback with us, though I was sorry to see you had a traumatic experience in labour. If you would like to discuss your experience please contact our PALS team at bwc.pals@nhs.net who can arrange a Debrief for you, which you may find beneficial as a way of discussing what happened in more detail with one of our senior midwives. I am pleased to see you still feel happy with the experience you have had with us, but please do get in touch if you would like to discuss anything any further. Best Wishes, the Patient Experience Team.
