(as the patient),

Admitted to western general dcn after sah immediate treatment was excellent but some of the nursing staff I came into contact with were very unprofessional. Two nurses had a full discussion about a patient in my ward their comments could be heard by everyone and the patient in question was very embarrassed, so unprofessional.

Overall the nurses were very good just a few bad apples.

Aftercare and follow up is very bad. Consultants make decisions without discussions with patient specialist nurses are just voice box for consultants I was told the consultant has made their decision it is what is is get over it
