I was subjected to probably my worst experience in A&E, my mum was sent to majors A isolation due to her serious condition. The nurses were unkind,uncaring,passively aggressive,incompetent and quite frankly an absolute disgrace to the profession. The nurse on 25th April night shift was rude,blunt and aggressive I was extremely worried for my mum's welfare by the nurses lack of attention to care , it was at this point I decided to raise my concern with a senior nurse called ben hoping that my mum would receive the care she needs. Unfortunately the senior nurse began lecturing me and almost ridiculing me in an aggressive manner. I felt helpless and extremely worried I didn't know what to do other than sit at the bedside of my mum until she was allocated a ward because I was never going to leave my mum under the care of the most unprofessional and incompetent nurses I have ever experienced. I stayed at my mums bedside for 16hrs. The morning nurses were a breath of fresh air they gave more attention and care to my mum in 2hours than what was given in 12hours by the night nurses.

You go to the hospital for help when your unwell, only to be failed by the people who you put your faith and trust into. This resulted in an unnecessary death which could have been completely prevented had policies, procedures and guidelines been followed.

A friend of ours was admitted after suffering a heart attack and although they did not make it and passed away the Resuscitation team and the cardio intensive care team did everything they could kept us informed and allowed us to be with them when they passed as they had no family the care was for us as well and just wonderful staff from the ambulance people nurses to the doctors and the cleaning staff at a time when they are under more pressure than we can imagine. Very calm professional clear and precise in their conversations with us and treated our friend with dignity even though they were non responsive. Amazing couldn't thank them enough

I suffer with Parkinson's Disease and have very limited movement. I was sent to The Royal Oldham Hospital today for an X-Ray on my spine. The way the radiographer treated me was disgusting. I was told to get off the x-ray bed without any help after getting stuck due to severe pain. I asked for help....I was ignored. I asked the radiographer to get my son....I was again ignored. I asked for help again saying I can't get up....the radiographer said "yes you can"! I managed to get myself off the bed feeling shocked and very upset. I have also pulled a muscle in my knee because I toiled to pull myself up. There was no understanding or sympathy for my situation. It is a sad sad day. What upset me the most was the radiographer ignored my plea for help....I feel humiliated and very upset....My husband died a few months ago and this is the last thing I need. I am frightened to ever return to Oldham. The older lady volunteer who walked me to the changing room was very kind and professional......a volunteer treated me with respect and a paid member of staff treated me like dirt.
