"My privacy was their top priority"

About: East Midlands Ambulance Service NHS Trust Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust - City Campus

(as the patient),

I had to call 999 for an ambulance at about 1am. It came within 20-30minutes. It’s the first time I had called an ambulance (I’m 82) and was very impressed with the service. The two paramedics made sure I was comfortable and warm. I had to stay in hospital for a while. All the staff were kind and caring. My privacy was always their top priority. The cleanliness on the ward (4 bedded) was excellent. I was most impressed. Three days after leaving hospital, I had to see a consultant. With the consultant, I felt I was being rushed and not listened to. That is my only complaint.
