The CCG was asked to ask Mayday Hospital to improve the signage at Purley War Memorial Hospital as local people were
1. Not aware that the hospital had reopened
2 Downgraded from Urgent Care Unit to Minor Injuries Unit
3. GPs, when they took over reduced the opening hours based on spurious evidence, mainly when the hospital was "a building site" that fewer people attended. Can't think why!
4. People have no idea when the opening hours are.
As far as I am aware, whoever is responsible for Purley Hospital was asked to put up signage that could be read from a car passing and read from the pavement, like a banner so everyone could see it easily.
Three months later, what has Mayday done? Put up a banner? Used the space under the existing boards either side of the entrance? No,"2 to 8pm" on the existing signage is all they have done
Taking the (insert your own word) michael is polite!
£11million spent on Purley Hospital to help relieve Mayday of it's overload, and the best they can do is 2- 8pm.
So much for listening and engaging with patients.
And don't talk about the misleading, photocopied notice you are handed if you are what is treated!
