I went into A and E with chest pains and was seen by lovely staff around 7.45am a dark haired receptionist a dark haired and blonde lady who assessed me where all lovely. I was then sent to the emergency day care a dark haired lady took my bloods she was brilliant and the blonde at reception. The lady doctor who came over with another lady where both lovely too. Everyone I saw was very caring. In the X-ray dept a lady I spoke to at desk was very busy but still very patient with everyone. A big thank you to all the staff who dealt with me you’re all wonderful.

I had to wait 2 1/2 hour to be seen. Not even so much as an apology from Mr v buza. Poor service.. shame as rest of the staff are clearly trying their best.

I have been a carer and advocate for my parents and several relatives at end of life in other hospitals, I have never experienced such shockingly poor and inadequate care. I was admitted to A & E and the care I received there was exemplary, on transfer to the ward every single item of care failed. My notes were left out on a chair in public view for hours until my visitor retrieved them. My condition was not monitored as closely as it should have been or at all for some observations. Treatments were not explained or given in a timely manner. Important investigations were ignored until discharge. Apparently 7 and a half hours is not long enough for Tameside to produce four routine prescription items for a patient to take home. I could never recommend this Department/Ward to anyone. Their lackadaisical attitudes (which seem to be from management down) are a very severe threat to patient safety.

My 64 year old husband has stage 4 kidney cancer and was admitted via A&E suffering from the side effects of radiotherapy to brain metastasis. Immediately upon our arrival by car (our choice) the staff from the receptionist, paramedics, clinicians and nursing staff listened to our concerns, asked pertinent questions acting swiftly and compassionately at all times. The A&E staff liased with our primary care team at The Christie and at all times supported both my husband, myself and our adult son, treating us all with care & compassion at this difficult time. Richard was transferred to the Medical Assessment Unit (MAU) where the standard of care & compassion continued. All staff members introduced themselves & their role to us and listened to our concerns. The following day R was transited to the Integrated Assessment Unit (IAU) which was much quieter and an MRI scan confirmed that the radiotherapy had caused swelling which would explain the symptoms of confusion and weakened motor control experienced. Once again the care & compassion shown by staff was universal to me, R and our son. The liaison with the team at The Christie continued and R was released the following day back into the care of The Christie. Discharge medication was dispensed on the ward and was ready and waiting very quickly after R was told he could go home. The ward pharmacist (probably not her title) came to explain the new regime and double check that we had everything we needed before we went home. An emergency visit to a hospial can be a very scary & worrying time but the staff at TGH treated us all with care and compassion: Richard, me (his wife) and our young adult son.
