A 5 hour wait to see a midwife

December 22, 2023
My experience has been okay, it would be better if waiting times were not so long. I was told to expect a 3 hour wait, but waited over 5 hours. The midwife was good when I saw her.

Hard to get around and find my way

December 20, 2023
It is a difficult hospital to walk around when you have mobility problems. There are lots of long corridors, its very easy to get lost, and the hospital is difficult to navigate.

Small site making access easier

December 20, 2023
The hospital is much easier to access and navigate compared to others I have attended for cancer treatment. I do not have to walk far from the carpark, which is helpful because I cannot walk far. I have received treatment from the oncology department and I have been happy with the care I have received.

Horrendous experience, low staff numbers

December 14, 2023
My husbands care when admitted here was horrendous. There was one nurse looking after 6 patients. I had to carryout all personal care, and I fear that if I had not my husband would have just been left. There were clearly staffing issues and they just could not cope.

Excellent Diabetic Clinic

December 14, 2023
The diabetes clinic is very good. I have a severe phobia of needles and they have ensured that I am supplied with auto-covered needles. They have treated me with such kindness and understanding, and have done their very best to meet my needs.
