"Recent stay in Hazelwood Ward"

About: East Surrey Hospital

My father was recently admitted as an emergency to East Surrey Hospital. He then spent a week in Hazelwood Ward where he sadly passed away. During his time there he was treated with respect and dignity right the way through to the end. He went from the A&E Unit to AMU to Hazelwood Ward and we found each department to be exceptionally clean. My family has nothing but praise for the lovely staff that we encountered who couldn't do enough for us.
