The hospital itself is a bit old and tired and some parts of it were less than clean. There was poo on the wheels of the bed and the commode for the bed next to mine and the shower room left a lot to be desired. Unfortunately I was in over a weekend when the staff operated on a skeleton as so many called in sick. I felt very sorry for the staff but it did mean that observations were missed and the people on my bay also felt quite threatened by one patient. It’s not an experience I would ever want to repeat. At the time I was in, due to covid there were no visitors either so you feel very isolated and alone. Any longer and I think I’d have suffered badly mentally.
