Pre-op assessment went very well

August 15, 2023
I attended my pre-op assessment on the 9 August 2023. The appointment went well, the service was good and I received a good level of care. While my operation is still planned to go ahead they were concerned about my blood pressure being slightly elevated, so they made arrangements for me to attend my gp surgery today for it to be checked again. I was seen in the new treatment centre. It is very nice with bright modern facilities and I was in and out very quickly. The staff were nice and friendly.

Seen very quickly in A&E

August 15, 2023
I attended A&E with a suspected broken toe. I was seen straight away and my toe was strapped up by a nurse. I was happy with the care received, and I was in and out in 45 minutes which was great.

Long waiting times/understaffed

August 11, 2023
I have attended the new maternity unit at Heartlands. The facilities are nice and its clean and bright. The waiting times were very long due to staffing numbers that day.

My last visit to the A&E department was awful. I was left waiting for hours. No consideration is given to your age the symptoms you are experiencing.

Great treatment but awful experience waiting

August 4, 2023
I spent over 15 hours sitting in a hard chair in A&E, the wait was awful. When I finally had an x-ray and saw a doctor I was diagnosed with a two broken collar bones and broken ribs. The doctors and nurses were fantastic but the wait was excruciating, and I was in extreme pain in an environment that was not very nice.

Outstanding care for end of life patient

August 4, 2023
My mum was admitted a few days before she passed away. She was treated very well during that time and I was very happy with the care she received. The family, and my mum, were all treated with kindness and compassion at a very difficult time.

8 hour wait when needed immediate treatment

August 4, 2023
My experience in A&E was horrendous. I waited over 8 hours to be seen and treated. I was told that I should have been treated immediately and put on oxygen straight away.
