Review titled Exceptional Care

by Verity King - Posted on 13 March 2024
From the receptionist to the actual procedure the care and consideration given by the nursing staff was above and beyond. The reassurance shown put me at ease immediately. Thank you so much.

Review titled Worst a+e in england.
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 09 March 2024
2 times in one week i attended a+e for different problems with my health and both times i was misinformed on the correct waiting times. 6+ hours in one night is no the turn around for an a+e department. Disrespectful staff when you ask about what happening with your case. rude abrupt answers with no help from the lady at main reception.

Needed to attend children’s ED with my 4 year old due to an injury. She was cared for swiftly by kind and knowledgeable members of staff. The waiting room was clean and welcoming for little children.

Review titled Amazing nurses on c5
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by HAYLEY - Posted on 14 March 2024
I am needle phobic and have awful veins. Two amazing nurses helped me, nothing was too much trouble. They took time, gave me respect, understood my phobia, were kind and best of all - they got my blood. One held my hand whilst the other sat on the floor (I do feel bad about that bit, but am grateful!) to get my sample. I cannot thank them enough for their kindness, professionalism and support during this procedure that I found difficult. Some people in the past have had no understanding of needle phobia, but the nurses on c5 do have this and it makes a huge difference. Thank you so much.

Review titled Avoid if you value your health
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Catwoman71 - Posted on 01 March 2024
Do not under any circumstances agree to go on Ward d8 at Stepping Hill. Yes the majority of the Staff are lovely, but there a couple who really let the rest of the team down. I was transferred there from d6, I was supposed to have treatment at 5pm and 7pm - these times were very very very specific on the information leaflet. The Staff thought 6pm and 9.30pm was close enough. That was night 1. Night 2 I was in pain, the Dr that arrived tried prescribing me codeine - despite me already being on tramadol. I made a comment about him having a baby face and looking about 15 - to then spend 10 minutes listening to him and a Nurse Totally totally slating me, that I was a horrible person etc. If I could hear them so could everyone else. Medications were often late - so meals when I should have been able to eat I couldn't because I'd not had my lansoprazole. I was in a lot of pain Weds night as I said so got zero sleep, the Dr from Gastro agreed to do bloods yesterday and then sent me home in a lot of pain - despite thinking I may have gallstones. This is probably because this was unrelated to what I went in with. Now I've found out she lied to me - you Don't get a scan quicker as an Outpatient than you do as an Inpatient

Review titled Excellent patient care
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by The department was endoscopy - Posted on 09 February 2024
From entering the unit full of fear and dread my husband dropped me of and the attention from all staff on the endoscopy ward explained the procedure step by step and this removed all my fears completely, I would easily recommend anyone with fears of undergoing the similar treatment in the future, don’t worry your in the hands of caring professional staff.

Review titled The appointment system could be significantly improved
by sagittadh93 - Posted on 15 January 2024
While the care I received was good, the system around appointments was awful. The appointment time seemed to function as an arrive at time and not to relate at all to the time at which you would actually be seen. On both appointment occasions, I waited over 2 hours from the time my appointment was actually scheduled, to the time when I actually saw a consultant. Long waiting times seem to be standard practice in this clinic. My time is money - when I don't work I don't get paid. Appreciate being able to access care - but surely the appointment system could be significantly improved.

Good morning, Thank you for taking time to share your recent experience with us following your wait in the Fracture Clinic. I was sorry to see that you had incurred a significant delay. This feedback will be shared with the team Manager so they can use this to look at improving communicating and managing wait times within the department. Kind regards, Patient Experience Team

Review titled Excellent Care
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Nicola Sullivan - Posted on 21 January 2024
My grandfather was admitted to ward b5, where he stayed for over 3 weeks. As a family, we cannot fault the care he received from all the staff. We got to know the Nurses and Healthcare assistants, (and even a couple of the patients!) and so the whole experience felt much more personal. They treated my grandad with the greatest care and respect. We even received a call when he'd been transferred home for palliative care, to make sure he'd arrived safely and was settled. I'm not allowed to name you all on here, but I hope this review reaches you, and you know just how grateful we all are to every single one of you!

Review titled Very good practice
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 01 February 2024
I have just had a prostate cancer diagnosed and dealt with in a few weeks. A blood test taken on 4th December showed a raised PSA. On 13th I was checked by a registrar in urology and had an MRI scan on the 22nd. On 15th Jan I had a biopsy and on 25th met with the head consultant, who carefully explained the results and discussed the options. Doctors, nurses and MRI technicians were all courteous and patient. I could not have asked for better treatment. It was the NHS at its best, in spite of the endless and growing pressures and difficulties caused in recent year by ever-changing P.M.s, chancellors of the exchequer, so-called ministers of health and their stooges.
