Inpatient - cardiac care

The experience was largely good and the vast majority of staff on the ward are very friendly and have a good bedside. One nurse was very rude to my family when they were visiting me but she was the exception. I would like to single out the junior sister on the ward for special praise as she has been especially helpful to both me and my family.

Excellent service when my mother had a stroke

From the paramedics that came on Friday until my mother's discharge today I cannot fault the hospital. My mother was admitted on Friday afternoon and excellent service from A&E taken to ward 514 by specialist stroke nurse, further scans Saturday and discharged today, thankfully with no lasting ill effects from stroke. We should shout and praise our NHS and the staff when it all goes right. Thank you to u all for looking after my mother and all of our family over the weekend. Your all amazing
