Kind of bad at A&E

The A&E was kind of bad. Really long wait. They sent us to the wrong department where we waited for 3 hours. They called us in and said he shouldn't be there and then sent us somewhere else. Really hard.

Really good, very quick

Really good at A&E. I was in majors as I had secondary burns and so they couldn't make me wait. They treated me initially and then got me transferred to the Children's. It was very quick.

It's not the best

It's okay, not the best, it's medium, alright. They could improve the way they take care of you with the medical side. Sometimes I can feel confused.

Nobody reads the patient notes.

Nobody reads the 'all about me' patient records on file. They didn't ask my wife is she wanted to go to the toilet so she would end up with a soaked pad when she ended up in hospital.

Clueless, ill planned, short staffed

The most ill planned and short staffed A&E in Birmingham. Everyone is clueless about everything and running around like headless chickens.
