Extremely worrying
April 15, 2021
Extremely worrying. Went in an emergency with kidney pains. Passed our several times. Not seen by anyone until 6 hours later. Excruciating pain yet no one was concerned. I have a very high pain tolerance yet this time I thought I was dying.
Outstanding

Absolutely horrendous
March 18, 2021
Went to get a diagnosis for chronic pain in lower leg. Three times they tried to take three vials of blood and messed up all three sets because they either did not fill the vials or used the wrong vials. 7:50 hour later and still non the wiser. The consultant didn’t seem to know much about my situation either.
non existent communication for relatives
Ward 29 covid
March 5, 2021
The nurses were very helpful, they have a tough job working in such difficult times. The issue is the lack of communication. I had already submitted a complaint. My father was admitted in December. They simply have no mechanism in place to keep relatives updated on the progress, or lack thereof, of loved ones. It truly is shocking that we are so long into the pandemic yet they have not put in place adequate communication structures to compensate for no visiting restrictions. The meeting with the Ward Manager did not fill me with confidence- the Ward Manager was not even given a copy of my complaint, she called me asking me about my concerns, i asked if she had read my complaint, she then said she will call me back but never did. That was a sign of how bad things are and how little appetite there is to rectify and even learn from the dreadful experiences of service users. where does one start to even raise it with someone who actually cares?
