Review titled Excellent Service
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Michelle Brown - Posted on 23 February 2024
Well I was admitted via the emergency walk in centre. For vaginal bleeding . I cannot express how wonderful and caring all the staff were. To say the hospital was very busy the care and attention I got was faultless. Even if I’d of paid private I don’t think I would have got better care. They were so through with me . I know there’s a lot of folk moaning about our NHS at the moment , but I must have to say I’m truly happy and satisfied with all the care and service I received today. Thank you to all the lovely staff for your help today, wish I had all your names to mention as I most certainly would. X

Review titled Above and beyond a23
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Chantelle Waddilove - Posted on 19 January 2024
A huge thank you to the outstanding team of nurses and doctors who work tirelessly to meet the needs of women on this ward. From start to finish I was treated with care, understanding and patience. The nurse who cared for me on this date deserves an award. Her proficiency is beyond what I could had asked for. Medication on time and the right amount (she made sure) personalised care, food, blankets, pillow cases. She was incredible. Thank you!

Everyone caring for me took the time to listen. They went above when my GP would not listen even when they was being shouted out but silly people they all still stayed positive in the work they do amazing hospital

Was so impressed with the care my husband received. Long waits are to be expected and Staff are very busy but they took time to answer questions and keep us informed of progress with tests and results. A big thank you to all the Staff.

Review titled Great staff and department
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 26 January 2024
My 19 year old daughter went to her GP who advised A&E at QMC we went on a Friday afternoon. Could not have had more attentive and kind staff, who were all obviously very busy. You were never made to feel that you were in the way taking up time, with what turned out to be the flu. Amazing service. Thank you

Review titled everyone doing their best
Rated 3 stars out of 5
by retired nurse - Posted on 19 January 2024
on a recent visit to the emergency department following a fall I was impressed with the professionalism of the hard working staff. however it seemed that the system for getting patients from the crowded waiting area was making the job even harder than it was. after patient had been registered they waited to be seen in this chaotic area. staff appeared from several different direction calling out patient names. some loudly some less loud and one or two from behind a mask making their calls impossible to hear. mostly patients were able to respond but several times the callers returned without a patient.some may have left ! but some probably did not hear. older people do have problems with hearing. there were large screens in the area giving information if patients were given a number on registration surely these prominent screens could be used to call them for treatment and even direct them to the appropriate place. this market place type environment does not seem appropriate to the highly professional conduct of the departments staff. These observations come from someone with 40 years NHS service who has nothing but admiration for the staff in this incredible pressurised department.

Review titled A&E has Improved since my last visit.
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 03 February 2024
Really impressed with my recent visit to A&E after hearing horror stories of people having horrendous waits to be seen. Thankfully, this wasn't the case and I was booked in and triarged,x-rayed and had a consultation with the Emergency Doctor and given appropriate medication all within 4 hours. All the staff I seen were kind and approachable including the Receptionist,triarge staff, radiographers and the doctor.

Review titled Thanks to all the fantastic staff
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Jane Elizabeth Bowden - Posted on 20 December 2023
My husband has had some very disappointing experiences in Queen's over the years, so I was dreading having a planned operation. However, I was very pleasantly surprised. All staff were fantastically caring and pleasant, keeping me informed about what was happening and why etc. Food was good and it was quiet and calm in the ward at night meaning I could get some sleep (something not possible for my husband on the other wards he experienced). Only suggestion for improvement is not to ask people to all come at 7am to Quadu; it was not great to have to wait 7 hours to be called to theatre! Also pre op information/correspondence could have been better. Having been asked if I would accept a date for just before Christmas and agreeing to that, I heard nothing more so rang a number of times to see if was going ahead. I left messages but never got a call back. Eventually, I spoke to someone less than a week before the op who confirmed I was on the list meaning I could make arrangements. I never got anything in writing confirming the op. Apart from that though, it was a very positive experience. Many thanks to all the staff in Quadu, the operating theatre, recovery, C25 and the volunteer who helped my husband find me to take me home - you are all very special people!

Dear Jane Thank you for taking the time to write and share your experience of coming into our hospital for an operation. We’re sorry to hear that in the past your husband has had some bad experiences, but it is good to know that on this occasion things went right and that you felt well cared for during your time with us. We will share your thanks with everyone involved. We are grateful for your understanding about the time you were asked to come in – we will certainly feed this back to the team, however it may not be possible to change this as managing the lists for the day does require all the patients having procedures to be in hospital at the start of the day. Kind regards Andrew Patient Experience Officer

Review titled I was not overly impressed with the treatment
by antliasx98 - Posted on 11 December 2023
I was not overly impressed with the treatment my child received in this ward, their response was very slow even when my child was on oxygen. The machine would beep endlessly and no-one attended, this did not instill any confidence in me whatsoever. No parent should go through this, watching your child on life support is heartbreaking as it is exacerbated by staff not responding in a timely manner.

Review titled Reassured and home with my family
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 07 December 2023
I attended the qmc gynae department today after I was transported to hospital by ambulance. The sensitive nature of my medical need caused additional anxiety for me but I was immediately put at ease by the ambulance crew who were fantastic, so caring and reassuring I am so thankful to the two paramedics and student paramedic who helped me today in so many ways. When arriving at the hospital I was quickly booked in and taken to a23 where the care continued to be incredible. The staff on a23 consistently ensured I was ok, both physically and emotionally. They explained each stage of the intervention and even when urgent treatment was required via an operation they helped me to relax and feel less anxious. Again the aftercare support was brilliant and the nurse who looked after me was always available, approachable and had such a positive attitude. Thank you so much today for all of your help this could have been a very different experience and I am so grateful for each and every person who helped me today.
