I have spent a good number of weeks in Inwood Ward at Alton Community Hospital. I particularly asked to be referred here rather than Andover, where I had spent time for rehab earlier in the year. I have always been treated with the utmost respect apart from just one occasion.
The only frustrating (slightly) thing I can think of is often being left in the bath/cloakroom waiting for someone to come back. I do appreciate the staff can’t always just stand and wait and so therefore have to attend to someone else. But coming in and turning off the call bell but forgetting to return is the frustrating thing.
I would like to thank 99% of the whole team whether nursing, HCA, and of course rehab, which is of course the whole reason why I am here, so I can try my best with their help to be more able and confident with my walking. So many staff have gone over and beyond their normal duties for me.
