Rude staff

Accident and emergency services
July 19, 2024
I recently had to stay over and was moved from bed to bed every night where I found only a handful of friendly staff the rest where obnoxious rude thoughtless. There's elderly people with illnesses there and they show no care at all. Slamming and banging about and always kicking off on each other at the early hours I ended up walking out in disgust

Long waits, cancelled appointments

July 16, 2024
It took 2 years to get the first appointment at Good Hope for my son. He has bow legs. After the first appointment the second one was cancelled. Most of the time we have to chase the appointments up.

I asked for help at the treatment centre and I was told I was asking too much. I was referred onto them and never heard from them again.

Not the best and I wouldn't recommend it. The mental health nurse had a piece of paper with other patients details on it.
