The staff on the ward were very good but I felt I was bed blocking waiting for the pharmacy to send my drugs for discharge. The consultant requested the drugs in the early morning but I was not ready to go until late afternoon.If it had come earlier someone else could have had my bed and lunch.

My room was near the nurses station - which was very noisy at change of shifts - I had to ask for my door to be kept closed. I didn't really want to hear about the drugs the other patients were being given! There was often quite a delay between requesting something like painkillers and actually receiving them. Having spent a night at the Spire in Havant last year I felt that the staff at QA could learn a great deal from the staff at the Spire - mainly about interactions with the patients. More explanations about what was happening and what I was being given would have been helpful. Although the staff were thoroughly professional and I felt I could trust them there was something missing.

Excellent housekeeping staff, ward area was always very clean. Nursing staff are brilliant. Even though they are very busy, they always find time for you and your needs. Doctors are amazing as always. All staff in the renal unit are fantastic and service is very well joins up with links to other health professionals as needed. Highly recommended!

After 7 months of waiting and a befuddled admin system between 2 hospitals I approached my operation with some trepidation. I was wrong. From the moment I met the operational team I felt secure and enlightened by their cheerful honesty. Everything was explained clearly & concisely before and after the op so that I was aware of procedures at all times. I know it was a stressful time for the ward as my op was nearly cancelled due to an emergency elsewhere. Some very ill patients on the ward became loud & agitated but were dealt with compassionately & professionally. My own return to consciousness was a bit frightening, and I believe a little violent, but calmed down in a short time by their positive attention. Aftercare is important, and it's the little things you remember. All patients were acknowledged with a natural smile, (not the awful puppet like white teeth we see so much of), as staff passed a bed. Regular checks to make sure everything was as it should be. Hot drinks were available when requested as was water, and assistance with toilet if required. Nobody likes being in hospital but I don't think any of the team could have done more to make the stay as comfortable as possible.

The staff were all marvellous friendly and helpful, I fortunately have had very little experience of longish hospital stay so this was new to me. I was in Room 8 which was very comfortable.

You all looked after my father with such care and compassion during a difficult time. Treated him with dignity and patience while he was unable to care for himself. Thank you so much

I sincerely applaud the nhs for every bit of treatment i have ever received, after breaking my ankle in Feb I was offered a bone density scan which is very proactive, I am a mobile hairdresser, and visit many elderly clients in their own homes and residential care, and I see the effects of broken hips, wrists, etc, I am very impressed with my osteoporosis being picked up by the scan at age 57 when something can be done for me to help reconstruct the bones, and hopefully preventing me from hip surgery later in life, Thank you nhs, NB: I would gladly pay an extra 1p tax to fund our invaluable system.
