"My stay at Treetops"

About: University Hospital Of North Durham

When I was in treetops the care I received was amazing. However, it wasn't always like that. Some of the nurses came across very rude and make unnecessary comments. One sister imparticular treated me like I was nothing and couldn't wait for me to leave and discharged me dead on 9am.

Other than that the nurses are absolutely fantastic. Very out-going and talkative. I love seeing when they walk past my door and their laughing and smiling and listening to their stories when they were at the staff base was hilarious. They are very comforting and most of them will be there when you need them which is always great.

To people who are dissing the NHS please don't diss completely. Talk about the positives too because their are some really fantastic people who work there who aren't appreciated enough for what they do.
