I have used Derriford Hospital on many occasions for different illnesses and like everything there is good and bad within it. I feel the cleanliness has improved and that can only be a positive thing, but I still see a lot of nurses with miserable faces and I acknowledge that there is a lot of stress in their jobs but what patience like to see is happy faces and someone they can talk to. I have worked in the health service for many years and think there is too much writing and not enough practical caring on the wards. Having said that I have always been well cared for.
