l came into hospital by an emergency ambulance. During my stay l was
l was treated very badly by two nurses who roughly dragged me up the bed.l distinctly remember this and that they were hurting me and to l was screaming to please stop. The only response l had was it needs to be done! I remember screaming in pain begging them to stop. Unfortunately they wouldn’t. This action caused large welts/large sores this means
and l am still having the district nurses to come to my home to tend to the welts/sores.
This walking centre is so much more convenient for me than attending my doctors, but I do understand it’s just for emergency patience that’s the service they provide is good and yes I would highly recommend themI’m
Went for a scan last week as my cancer has come back.I parked my car safely and sensibly as I could not walk a couple of miles from Stanley Park.Just received a fine of £100 by post this a.m.Disgusted.They only care about making money from fines,no care for cancer sufferers here.Apparently many patients have had same problems.Many reviews saying do not use.
Because I don’t need to make that happen to anyone
Great service, just unsure why Cleethorpes or other areas don't have a similar walk in service particularly for dressing changed which when daily can be stressful, where I live I have to call out of hours, on hold for up to 1 hour every day then also on weekdays cannot go before 6:30pm...
Yet in some parts of the country you can just walk in and often be seen in minutes without all of that hassle
So this service is brilliant but once again highlights inequalities in services provided to supposedly equal people based on where they happen to live, if the NHS worked like this everywhere it's reputation would be far better and work load could be significantly reduced.
Receptionist was helpful seating area was clean patients weren’t waiting to long nurse was very helpful and thoroughly professional
To answer your question
I was impressed with the politeness and the professional attitude of members.
Took a 6 month old baby after her gp said they were too busy to see her.
Received prompt and appropriate treatment
