Initially when I was brought in by the ambulance service which were incredible, but then once I was admitted into the hospital, things went downhill from there. There was several attempts by phlebotomists to try and get blood out of my arm, but could not insert the canola properly, which that then involved me A haematoma and a massive lump on my arm .then as the day went on. I did receive some treatment, but the main doctor then came to me after a few hours and stated that he is going to discharge me as I am not having a heart attack which was not my reason for admission, and that if anything else was to happen, I can come back to the hospital as it is 24 hours and that there is nothing else he can do. after stating that to me, I mentioned that I did not feel well still and as a diabetic, I believed I should have stayed in which he then discharged me without any medication and sent me home . within less than 24 hours. I was then re-admitted into hospital when the duty doctor came to see me, she was infuriated that the previous doctor did what he did and had know words to say to me.
Lovely nurse, explained everything and sorted the start of a plan of action.
I was looked after and treated very well all the time I was there also informed of every thing they was doing nothing
The staff at King George Hospital were helpful and friendly, polite
Really lovely nurse for Botox for migraines. Makes me feel so at ease
Very friendly staff and minimal waiting
Do not attend at King's George or Queen's Hospital if you want to receive a proper emergency treatment. They don't care about patients. Very inexperienced medical staff and a long wait for more than 16 hours and no treatment provided.
All but two nurses were pleacent, were caring, friendly and compassionate.
The other two were abrupt to the point of rude and quiet uncaring - I believe one may have been a Sister, she wore dark blue uniform.
While in Majors Bay 19 this person upset more than one person.
Ignoring what she said to me; there was a frail elderly lady in opposite Bay. The elderly lady (with dementia) may have asked a question. However, this lady was shouted at, in very rude terms; upsetting drastically.
Her daughter arrived shortly over wards; I do not remember if she was there previously. The lady was crying and in distress; I was able to inform the daughter, of what happened.
When that nurse was taken to task about it, she stated that she would not stop until the person who did the offence, was found but it was the same nurse!
The care for my son was good but the wait is too much
The staff did the best that they could under the circumstances but a&e was overcrowded with patients in the corridors and people sitting on the floors. Staff were fed up. Many patients with mental health issues shouting and others distressed made it difficult for you to relax and sometimes it felt unsafe. We waited nearly 10 hours mostly in the corridors with people and the patient was 93!! Staff looked tired and deflated. Patients were in pain, discomfort and disbelief!
