Staff's attitude is questionable

November 6, 2023
You just wait hours on end. You do get seen eventually but it's busy and it's a long wait. The staff's attitude is questionable.

They made me feel comfortable.

They made me feel comfortable. They went out of their way to make me feel comfortable over the three weeks I was in there. They were really good. One nurse bought me a cake for my birthday and they were really good. Everyone went out of their way to chat.

Lets see if they refer me back.

October 26, 2023
I have been referred onto Heartlands for treatment but for love nor money can I get hold of them. They haven't sent me any letters until I finally got in contact with them and they said they'd refer me back to my consultant at Good Hope. We shall see if that happens in December.

I went to A&E and waited for 3 hours without any support. In the end I was seen by a junior doctor who was quite helpful.

They couldn't do anymore for her

October 25, 2023
They couldn't do anymore for my 77 year old nan. She had sepsis and ended up on a drip but they've been really good with her and they kept us informed as a family.

There's people sleeping on the floor in A&E. Its not so bad on the wards but the food was bad. A dog wouldn't eat it. In this day and age it shouldn't be like that.
