"Dr and all staff were lovely"

About: Daisy Hill Hospital / Emergency Department Radiography services / CT Scans Radiography services / Ultrasound Radiography services / X Ray Department

(as a carer),

Visited DHH ED with my father following a fall

5hr wait to see Dr Yemi

Dr and all staff were lovely Xray and CT prompt and efficient.

Clinically this is a rotator cuff injury which needs ultrasound and probably surgery however aparently imaging does not accept ultrasound referrals from ED! I believe, this slows the patient journey and may negatively affect outcome!

Also……

Very poor signage to ED and within ED

Very poor communication

Seating not appropriate for the very ill or infirm

So far we have spent 1hour just waiting for a sling.

Sigh
