Torbay is an excellent Hospital. Very clean and professional. Cant fault it too much. the only thing that I would say from my own experience during my stay on one of the wards, is that is extremely difficult to get any rest when you are feeling unwell as the ward is very noisy with (many) audible alarms beeping relentlessly. Unfortunately, the nursing staff do not seem to realise just how torturous this can be when you cannot move from the bed to escape from the noise. The nursing staff do not have time to respond quickly enough to the various alarms as they are understaffed and all overloaded with work.When I used the word "relentlessly" above, this was by no means an overstatement. This is not a criticism of the nursing staff themselves, they are all very professional and all do a fantastic job.
