have been waiting for a letter from a department and when after asking for weeks and also my gp the letter came with the excuse both must have been lost in the post
again after several months saw the same department and after many weeks because of the last time not getting a letter asked when i may have one sent
NO REPLY AT ALL to my enquirey
PALS ENQUIRED 3 TIMES NO REPLY AT ALL TO THEM
GP ASKED FOR LETTER AGAIN NO REPLY AT ALL
GP REQUESTED AGAIN NO REPLY UNTIL I SAID I WOULD MAKE A FORMAL COMPLAINT
WHY SHOULD IT TAKE THIS MANY TIMES TO JUST ANSWER SOMEONE??

Thank you for caring for my daughter so well. In a time of worry and anxiety, I felt I could trust the professionals to keep her safe.

Review of AE (Worthing)
27th June 2023
My 87 year old father in law was taken by ambulance to a&e with abdominal pain. He was in severe pain, but despite this, staff had to be asked for analgesia, intravenous fluids. He was not properly assessed by a clinician for 3 hours . It took a further 2 hours to get a scan. It was then a further 2 hours for a dr to tell us what was going on. All the time he was getting worse

Overall a good experience. Consultant and his PA were heroic, I cannot thank them enough. Discharging Reg less so. Nurses very efficient and for the most part clinically very sound. Some patchiness in personal approach from HCAs, but not detrimental to my stay.Uniformly clean. Food generally dire, but there you go - I got my husband to bring some in.

I have had two experiences with Worthing hospital, one very positive and one les so. In January 2023 I was admitted to A&E following a pelvic fracture caused by a fall 5' off my garden wall onto flagstones below. Despite pressures the NHS was under I was very grateful for the way my case was handled both by the paramedics and the Emergency Team at Worthing. Yes there was a bit of waiting and quite a lot of shunting around during the course of the night but I really felt all the staff were doing their best for me in difficult circumstances.
In 2019 I was diagnosed with Terminal Prostate Cancer. On that occasion I was kept waiting 5 weeks to get my diagnosis, there seemed to be no consistency of staffing and my case clearly didn't seem to be a priority. I was fortunate to be able to get a transfer to a different NHS trust where the care has been much better.

By no fault of their own the staff don’t always have the time to be around you so I felt I waited around for long periods. Some members of staff seem prepared to go ‘that extra mile’ and I commend them. Everyone was caring and helpful.

My grand daughter has suffered general & mental health problems for several years with poor care by healthcare professionals in the area.Last night in a crisis state following overdose she was taken to Worthing A&E where she was put on a saline drip for several hours in a side room.She begged for admission even by Sectioning but was given basic advice & discharged without concern for her safety or welfare.She walked the 2 miles to her flat where she lives alone to find that the drip canula had been left in her hand.This level of care is unacceptable & shows that the problems within NHS Sussex mental health services are worse than ever.

Worthing hospital has always been brilliant and we are so glad we still have such a great hospital.
All of the staff have been fantastic, from all departments, birth of children, operations as well as other medical care for all of our family whenever we needed it. We can't endorse Worthing hospital enough!
We would be devastated if it were to close.
