Right, I have spent a lot of time in your care over the yrs, collapsed lung,neurology, audiology, ent, day sugery for knee repair and hip replacement. I have always had fantastic care by excellent staff, consultants, nurces, and everyone else in the hospital. I was sent to oxford with my neurology prob. Took 6 mnth to find the prob but they never gave up. Honestly didn't think id make it but I did. Thanks to the great care I was given. Now, ive read reviews and a couple I cant agree with, one Russian gentleman said his treatment in a and e was terrible, acused nurses of racism and demanded they were disciplined. Rubish, I don't believe it, ive never exp anything I can complain about at all. These nurses are the lifeblood of this and other hospitls who do a very difficult job. How can you call an institution which employs a lot of foreign nationals racist. Most of my care was from these people and it was second to none. Another lady says she was left to disconnect all her medical equipment herself. Sorry, unless you know what your doing it cant be done. No nurse would allow that. To finish off, put yourself in a nurses shoes for a minute, see what they see, do what they do and then suffer the abuse they do at w/ends with the drunken idiots who should be made to pay for there treatment. Apreciate the marvellous hospital weve got in Swindon and the brilliant, dedicated staff who work there under very difficult conditions.Thank you all for looking after me all these yrs.
