Poor signage, poor letter content

December 18, 2023
The letter didn't tell you which floor I needed to go to just the clinic name. You get to the first floor then you have to find out where your going. There's temporary signs to get to the clinic and then they says it has been transferred to another clinic. Therefore I was delayed for my appointment. I couldn't see any signs for the way out either. The signage is rubbish and letter don't tell you what floor the clinic is on either so that needs looking at too.

I use A&E instead of my GP

December 18, 2023
I have used the services many times in the last 2 years. Although you have to wait for a few hours you do get properly assessed by the doctor and given prescriptions and medication.

Well managed ward but old an call system

December 14, 2023
I am an inpatient on ward 28. It's a very well managed ward. The only issue if the patient call system is very old and the nurses take ages to respond to your call.
