  1. Review titled Extremely impressed

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Barbara Jones - Posted on 10 January 2023

    I came into the Conquest A&E early on Jan 1 with breathing difficulties. Spent a day in the Emergency treatment room, then admitted with flu. I've never seen such efficient dedication and care and attention to detail, an endlessly busy team of doctors and nurses dealing with dozens of walk-ins, so much patience and warmth and efficiency. I am seriously impressed and have no doubt they saved my life. No idea how these fantastic people cope with risking their own health at the same time showing such professionalism and kindness, and good humour, towards the rest of us. Really heartwarming. A huge thank you from me.

    Dear Barbara, Thank you for taking the time to leave such great feedback about your attendance to the Emergency Department (ED) at Conquest Hospital in January 2023; we really appreciate it. First and foremost, we very much hope you are now better as presenting with breathing difficulties must have been an enormously worrying time for you. The Trust strives to provide a high standard of care for all patients, and so we are pleased to read you were well-looked after by staff who excelled in their duty of care as this underpins our values of respect and compassion. We will ensure your generous words are shared with staff in the ED and hope you are keeping safe and well.

  2. Review titled Exemplary

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by David S - Posted on 05 January 2023

    I walked into the Conquest A&E at 6.15am on Bank Holiday 2nd Jan, with a pulse of 180 and was totally breathless, I could barely stand, I was triaged within 30mins and on a vitals support machine in A&E for 8 hours observation, a fabulous team looked after me (worked on me) and coordinated with the Cardio Dept and senior Drs gathering all the info needed, ecg’s, blood tests, xrays, blood pressure and pulse monitoring, so they and Cardiology had all the background needed to make the decisions required. I was stabalised as best my condition and body can allow currently and left the department the same day at 3-15pm with a next steps plan of action – which is very reassuring where one’s heart is involved. Sadly I did witness people in corridors in beds, and an A&E waiting room crammed to capacity, everyone was trying to do the best they could in a highly pressurised situation. Thank you Conquest Hospital for all you did for me and are going to continue to do as we find out more about my poorly body.

  4. Review titled Excellent care

    Rated 4 stars out of 5

    I recently received excellent care at the Conquest for a gynae procedure. All the staff were kind, caring and professional ; those on Gardner ward and the theatre staff. The doctor was very reassuring, and empathic on the day and followed this with a validating letter. The HCA was kind, with a lovely sense of humour. I really valued the empathy of the theatre sister prior to the procedure. Really great experience when the NHS is under so much pressure - thank you all

  6. Review titled Good Experience

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by R Gorham - Posted on 07 December 2022

    I was scheduled for a procedure at short notice at the Conquest Hospital Hastings which involved a pre-assessment at DGH Eastbourne two days before. I was duly admitted as a day patient for the procedure at the Conquest hospital. Everyone who I came into contact with that day, and at the pre-assessment made me feel well looked after and confident. They were all efficient, friendly and kind and the whole thing went like clockwork. The procedure has been a success. Thank you.
