Review of In-Patient Unit
4th July 2023


Excellent support and always ready to listen and explain everything. Dealt with pain brilliantly. I was made to feel safe.

Suggested improvements
Bathroom ( shower) could do with a little improvement such as additional grab rail, shelving which would be easy accessible for toiletries. Extra hooks in bathrooms to hang dressing gown and clothes etc.

Review of In-Patient Unit
28th June 2023


I have recently spent time in the Inpatient Unit for, some respite care. At all times I was treated with great respect, dignity and more importantly to me loving care. The staff always have time to sit, talk and listen if I had some worries either physically or emotionally. All the doctors valued my input with regards to, medication increases or changes and asked my feelings about their decision in doing so. Nothing is too much trouble and that also goes for the kitchen staff Garry and Maxine. They were happy to make/cook me any of my weird concoctions. Overall my experience was a very positive one. I felt much better and rested after my respite care. Thank you all.

I'm at a loss really to find anything that can be improved on, at the present time.

Review of Lymphoedema Clinic
15th June 2023


I attend the clinic on a regular monthly basis and have always found staff at all levels to go above and beyond. Staff have always treated me with dignity, respect and kindness. They often understand your needs before you do due to their experience and expertise. They listen to your concerns, act on them appropriately and use laymen's term to explain things to you. Highly recommended.

Suggested improvements
Keep doing what you are doing!

Review of Lymphoedema Clinic
15th June 2023


Have been attending clinic for many months. Staff are always kind and caring. They often understand your needs before you realise yourself due to their experience . They are easy to talk to and if you have a problem they cant deal with, will refer you to someone else or give you the necessary info to try and help. All staff at the hospice are wonderful and cannot do enough for the patients .

Suggested improvements
Parking can be difficult. Sometimes have to park on the main hospitL carpark which then can be pricey when you come quite a lot . Maybe some kind of concession for patients attending the hospice?
