I was seen straight away due to my symptoms. All staff were amazing and so caring and compassionate. The Department was extremely busy but the staff managed to find me a couch and made time to check on me and keep me updated. I received the appropriate investigations and treatment very quickly despite how busy the Department was. I was seen my the orthopaedic team and had an urgent MRI scan. The staff that took me for my scan were lovely and very kind and supportive. I was found a bed and stayed overnight- again the staff were lovely and very caring despite how busy they were. In the morning, i was discussed at the Orthopaedic Trauma meeting and told i could go home - this was done in a timely manner and all staff were lovely and very supportive. My daughter had the opportunity to stay with me all the time which was an added reassurance for us both.

Nothing on my stay for me but i would like to see the staff are supported more by management and appreciated for their efforts and their hard work. I also dont think they have enough breaktime but probably wouldn’t have chance to use it anyway so maybe more opportunities for them to have drinks and snacks on the go.
