Came in with Cellulitis, was well treated and kept in for extra day when blood culture results obtained. I was "parked" in ward A6 because they had an empty bed, I heard staff caring for people suffering from dementia with firmness, patience and compassion and was very impressed with the staff on night duty on the night of 28th Mar. Even the food was OK many thanks

I spent most of my working life overseas and was twice hospitalized by health emergencies requiring immediate operations : firstly in Bangkok, Thailand and then in Nanaimo, Canada. The treatment was excellent on both occasions. I returned to the UK in 2009 and was apprehensive about the service I could expect in hospitals in later life this in this country after all the adverse reports circulated by the media and individuals. I now consider them to be exaggerated and unfair. I think myself to have been very fortunate taking up residence in Warrington where I have nothing but praise and well earned gratitude for the NHS : I am in my 80s and have always been treated caringly with excellent attention both from GPs and hospital personnel. My appraisal is that, contrary to publicly expressed opinions which leads one to make premature judgement, little or nothing could be subject to improvement in this medium size town, although I am sure that treatment in Warrington cannot be representative of treatment in the country as a whole. To date, it has not fallen far short of the private hospital treatment which I received in Thailand nor the MSP medical services plan) treatment which I had experienced in Canada. Congratulations to Warrington and Halton hospitals for the high standard they set.

I was admitted 4/3/18 at 4:30pm The place was ram packed and I ended up in a corridor for hours, I thought the staff in the resus room where a bit cold hearted some of the thing I heard said about patients wasn’t nice. However I’m writing this because when there were no beds they turned the ambulance care centre into a makeshift ward, I was the youngest there by 40 years plus but i had a lovely experience the nurse and care assistant a woman and man sadly cannot remember there names were excellent so friendly comforting and just amazing they do not get the credit they deserve 8 patients most of which with dementia to two people and technically only one nurse, I hope this gets to them and they receive this feedback I have never enjoyed a night in hospital before but they were so friendly and comforting that I had a laugh with them! I was the tonsillitis patient in bed 8 from 2am on 5/3/18.

After 18 hrs in A&E I was given a bed on A4, usually a Gastro ward and I had severe cellulitus but it was out of A&E and out of the corridor. Here I spent 3 weeks as a patient a very long time let me tell you but I can only praise the staff especially when more often than not they were short staffed. The team pulled together and were fully committed under circumstances that canonly be described as a very busy and always full to capacity ward, including some very demanding patients that I saw during my stay. My heartfelt thanks goes out to everyone who works on A4 as they definitely kept me sane during my 3 week stay. All staff always had a smile on their face and nothing was too much trouble. As an NHS employee my job as a phlebotomist means that I am only on the wards for a short time and you do not realise how hard the staff on here work and you do not appreciate how busy they are, again on most occasions they are also short staffed, making their job even harder. A huge thanks and well done to all on A4 and for all your help and care that I received during my stay

I was discharged this morning after a months out patient treatment in the surgical assessment unit (SAU) involving an operation and subsequent care. In my opinion this unit is a model for such care - run by professionals for the benefit of patients all the staff were friendly, diligent and cheerful. delays were minimised and staff just got on with it without fuss . I cannot praise the service highly enough- I was a little worried when I was referred because the press the NHS gets is so poor but not a bit of it! the unit was busy but my treatment was second to none.

The staff were totally attentive every minute of my treatment. They were very informative before and extremely caring during and after the procedure. My discharge was handled expertly and in a dignified and friendly manner. This is as near to perfection as you can get.
