"Phone numbers incorrect on the website"

About: University Hospital Monklands

(as a relative),

On the website for Monklands many of the ward phone numbers are wrong. I phoned ward 14 to be told that’s now ward 12s number, and to “try” ward 20s for 14. I didn’t as I went through switchboard. Trust me when you are trying to find out how your relative is you don’t need this.   Also spent 2 hours of phoning MAU 3 days ago with no answer. I understand wards are busy, but maybe having someone to answer the phone would help relatives and patients.

Hi,

I am sorry to hear that you had issues trying to make contact with the relevant ward during your relatives stay. There has been some very recent ward moves and we are working on have the website updated. Please accept out sincerely apologies and do not hesitate to contact us in the future.

With best wishes
