Review titled Waste of time
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 04 April 2024
Well I wish I could say I was surprised by the shocking service but I'm not. Yesterday I was taken to hospital via ambulance due to an asthma attack once there I was told I had high lactate levels, low potassium levels and was treated for them. And then told I've an infection and given antibiotics and sent home. The next day I have another sever attack (this makes 4 within a week) and was once again taken to hospital via ambulance and put in SDEC ward I waited over an hour to have my observations checked and only had them done when I told them I had had another asthma attack and taken my medication..... When I finally saw the doctor I was told to just keep taking my normal medication (which clearly isn't controlling my symptoms) and come back in Saturday for bloods..... I've wasted numerous amount of hours for nothing I have had no treatment whatsoever today and now have to come and sit back here another day to have my bloods done!! What's the point in me having an action plan for my chronic lung conditions if no medical professionals follow it!! Most likely I will end up back in withing the next few days

Review titled Lackluster staff
Rated 2 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 23 April 2024
Mum receiving treatment for a really bad infection and yet she's had to deal with used sick bowls laying around because there's no one to collect and replace, the the staff even after multiple requests seem to forget and ignore issues, and when they are around they spend more time talking about outside work issues and non related rubbish that they ain't taking care of patients because they would rather chit chat between themselves. Have requested a nurse multiple times, as trying to get an alternative to solid foods because my mum isn't eating solids and when she does try it's just causing her to be sick, was promised stronger painkillers and still haven't received them, even after her blood pressure had risen to an acceptable level, doctor was meant to come again but hasn't bothered, I know they are busy but shouldn't have to wait all day for acceptable care, when the reason you are in hospital is because you can't treat things yourself its ridiculous, and they keep screaming about more money, well stop gossiping and start working, government needs to buck up there ideas and pay more staff and get them better warfare training, it's extremely needed. It's like decorum went out the window with the ark.

Review titled Cardiology outpatient great experience
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 10 April 2024
After open heart surgery at another hospital I was discharged and told that yearly checks would now be done at another hospital within the trust.....so I expected to wait a good few months before receiving any notification of an appointment. Within week's of being discharged I was given an appointment that was initially cancelled but another appointment was scheduled very quickly, which I was really impressed with considering delays that have been occurring within the system. I thought I was just going for the usual chat and check up with a consultant so was really surprised when he did an ultra sound scan there and then...no appointment at radiology as is what I have been used to. The consultant was so thorough...had a fantastic manner and was very patient friendly and informative. My partner who was with me was equally as impressed as I was. The staff in the unit were extremely helpful and informative and the whole visit was a very pleasant experience. It was a great example of giving patients a comfortable and reassuring experience and from my point of view it's good to give people a pat on the back and to say well done and thank you.

I just want to say that although I was terrified of having the procedure the staff were wonderful with me and couldn't have been more caring. I felt extremely well cared for.

Review titled Appalling attitudes
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 19 February 2024
Absolutely appalling attitudes from staff went to ask how much longer until I was triaged after waiting well over an hour my symptoms were getting worse and I was just told I just had to sit and wait and then they called the next person forward and I had to sit on the floor of the a&E waiting room due to there being no chairs apart from in the children's bit where I wasn't allowed to sit.

Had to go to a&e after collapsing. I was looked after brilliantly from the triage nurse to the doctor. Excellent staff working under extreme pressure. You all do an amazing job

Review titled Left to suffer
Rated 2 stars out of 5
by Val - Posted on 16 January 2024
Checked in my wife with her details and symptons after she was told by her doctor she needed to have a xray due to strong pain in her ribs after falling down full flight of stairs. Waited 1 hr and then called. Lady wanted to know the same details already told when we checked in. After that was again asked to wait & told it wont be long a wait in the not so busy waiting room. Waited another 2 hrs while seeing some not so emergency cases come and go. Due to my wife feeling very uncomfortable sitting on a chair for 3 hrs. Her ribs paining her. I decided enough was enough & told the receptionest I needed to go home to give my wife a rest from the pain she endured while sitting for 3 hrs with suspected rib issues. No one seemed bothered. So I took her home to rest in a more confortable position. Extreemly disatisfied with the lack of care or concern shown to my wife.

Review titled Very Long Waiting Times and Unsympathetic Consultant
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Daniel Thomas Reed - Posted on 26 February 2024
Initially referred to ENT July 2023, took till January 2024 to get an appointment. When I eventually got to see a consultation he spent very little time carrying out a thorough physical examination and readings previous history notes. He seemed very cold and unsympathetic to my diagnosis and offered little to no explanation to why I've suddenly gone deaf. Only the nurse who was present gave me any meaningful reassurance and actually seemed like she genuinely cared. Now 6 weeks has passed and i still haven't been fitted with hearing aids or had any inclination when i might get a appointment.
