Awful experience because of parking
April 18, 2024
The parking at Heartlands Hospital is a nightmare. It makes me dread having to go the hospital because it is so stressful and frustrating.
Lack of low hearing awareness
April 18, 2024
I have been very disappointed by the lack of low hearing awareness and training that I have encountered at Heartlands Hospital. There does not seem to a loop system and I have had extreme difficulty when attending appointments. None of the members of staff that I met had any training, even registering attendance for the appointment was very difficult. Communication from doctors was very unclear. This needs to be addressed as I cannot be the only person to have had this experience, and I hate to think of others struggling like I have.
Passed away in MAU because no beds on wards
April 16, 2024
My elderly grandparent passed away in the medical assessment unit because there were no beds available on any wards. They had cancer and a blood clot and were very unwell. I was not happy with the care they received and the fact that they spent their last living moments on a bay in MAU are just appalling. Being a NHS worker and knowing how things should be done I am very cross at the situation our family were put in.
3 days spent in A&E department
April 16, 2024
My elderly grandparent spent 3 days in the accident and emergency department at Heartlands Hospital because there were no beds available. The care was good but the environment and stress of waiting for a bed in a ward was awful.
Poor facilities for disabled patients
April 16, 2024
There are a lack of wheelchairs for patients to use at appointments. I had to hunt the hospital to find one in order that I could bring my husband in to his appointment. There were no staff to help or assist me and I was not the only person trying to find one. There needs to be more available at such a large hospital.
Poor communication & rude staff
April 16, 2024
The communication at the hospital is poor, on two separate occasions my husband was moved and I was not informed. It was very worrying turning up to visit him and there was someone else in his bed. As you can imagine for a moment you fear the worst! A doctor on Ward 8 treated me very rudely. He spoke over me and directed the information to my son, this happened on more than one occasion and we had to point out that as husband and wife I am my husbands next of kin and that information needs to be directed to me.
Wonderful care on Ward 28
April 15, 2024
My husband has been very well cared for on Ward 28 at Heartlands hospital. Every test possible was carried out but so far they have been unable to make a diagnosis. The staff are very kind and attentive to my husband and have ensured that he remains comfortable. The level of care and support has been outstanding.
A good experience with the endocrine team
April 15, 2024
My experience with the endocrine team at Heartlands Hospital has been very good. I have been under their care for a number of years and have no complaints.

April 15, 2024
I have been very satisfied with the treatment I have received from the physiotherapy team at Heartlands Hospital.

I have been under the care of Heartlands Hospital for the past 6 years. I have been cared for by the diabetes team, who have been very good.
