The junior doctors were on strike. I was seen by consultants who were excellent. I could not have received better treatment.

Suggested improvements
Nothing. I was very pleased.

Review of King George’s - Accident & Emergency
21st July 2023


I went to A&E at 3.25 pm, I was seen very quickly by triage staff, however, the rest of my experience was awful. I was told that tests would only be ab hour or so, but blood test and CT scan took hours and the results for the CT scan i didn’t get until 3.30am the next morning. I was sat on a hard chair, in corridor, the nurse kept telling me i would get results in a minute, but i didn’t get them until hours later when i threatened to leave. I was then advised i would have to be admitted. I was asked to sit on a bed that wasn’t cleaned, only tissue paper was put on it. I was advised that i would be transferred by ambulance to queens in the next hour. I was left on the bed with no cover or sheet, freezing. Only when the new staff came in in the morning did a lovely nurse put a sheet on the bed and gave me pillows and blankets and made me comfortable. I was not transferred to queens until .around 10.30. I was sat awake all that time. There was no communication about what was wrong with me or test results until 12 hours after entering the hospital and even then i was just left uncomfortable waiting to be transferred until the new nurses came in the next day. It was a horrible experience !

Suggested improvements
Better communication, be honest about waiting times, although it wasn’t even busy when I went into A&E at first. If a person is going to be admitted, at least make that person comfortable so they can at least they and sleep, we feel awful enough, without sotting on a hard chair all night and then a bed with just plastic mattress!

Review of Heather Ward written by a family member
19th July 2023


All of the nurses were very kind and helpful and took great care of me, very friendly and extremely helpful. Nurses were amazing and the doctors too. Nurses are angels in this ward salute to the manager who has taught such good practice to nruses.

One of the days my granddaughter came to visit for 1 hour before she would go work, we asked doctor to speak to us and tell my granddaughter new information as I do not speak Engligh. She said she would came in 1 minute, I would 50 minutes (a nurse even reminded doctors to visit my son). Doctor did not came and grandaughter had to leave. Doctor may have been busy but I would have appreciated communicating.
