Good Hope Hospital

Last year they were going through forms and presumed my next of kin when in fact it wasn't who they presumed and was my mother. I don't like assumptions being made. It makes me feel uncomfortable.

My sister received cancer care over the past 3 years from The Sheldon Unit, the ambulance service and staff, A&E and ward staff. Throughout her care my sister was impressed by the care, compassion and friendly support she received from all concerned.

The colonoscopy service was very good. the follow ups are not good. There seems to be a missing link with follow ups.

This physiotherapist has changed my views on the hospital. My dad passed away several years ago, when this happened staff and the treatment given wasn’t the best.
I was apprehensive when first arriving but how wrong was I. She is an absolute amazing human being she’s treated me with care support and kindness. She is fantastic at her job. I broke a bone in my leg. I can safely say it all sorted now thanks to her. You have a Diamond working for you who needs recognition for what she does. Thank you so much, you're the best.

Long wait at A&E. From 8pm until 6am. They helped but they were very short staffed and everything took a long time.

I went into A&E and as soon as they saw it and touched it they sent me to the surgical unit. They were good, acted quickly and took me seriously.

The surgical unit cut my chest and left it open because of where it was and ended up with an open wound. They were good and acted quickly. They told me I would need to go to the GP every couple of days to have the wound packed.

My husband passed away 2 months ago and they were so good. I have no bad words to say about them. I have no complaints.

Lost weight and stopped eating. He was taken in on the Monday and died on the Thursday. They were wonderful people, wonderful nurses and we were able to be there as a family with him. They were so good to him and us.

My wife is having chemo at the cancer unit. We have been given a number to call if there are problems. It just rings out no answer phone or anything. It is truly useless and adds to stress of treatment.
