What I liked
i liked leaving this hospital, my wife was admitted through A&E who were inept in dealing with asthma, she was then sent to the EAU where they would not give her any inhalers or nebuliser and even had her oxygen taken off her. She was then sent to the lung function ward where she stayed for some time with no intervention, i had to go home and get her own meds as the hospital said it needed someone to sign off any prescriptions, she was then told to leave the ward at 3am, being marched out and put into a cardiac ward as there were no beds anywhere else. My wife phoned me at this point to come and fetch her. This hospital is appaling as is its care or lack of it. I could go into all the details but would probably need more characters so i'll stop there. Do not go to this hospital if you can help it.
What could be improved
the standard of care and basic nursing, oh yes and to stop giving patients on a lung function ward cigarettes when they've run out
"absolutely rubbish, the worst hospital i've ever..."
