I was recently admitted to Cannock Hospital for minor surgery as a day case. The care was exemplary from start to finish.
All the staff were friendly and caring and a special thank you to the nurse in theatre who distracted me during the surgery.
It was all run efficiently on the ward and I was kept informed. The ward itself was clean and tidy and I was offered on several occasions the opportunity to have a drink and something to eat.
The whole experience lasted 4 hours from admission to discharge and I really appreciated the fact that I was not kept waiting to go home.
The only negative for the hospital is that the access road becomes a bottleneck for traffic. The parked cars on one side of the road makes it single file traffic and when people can’t drop off in the designated area, they stop and block the road. When a lot of patients that attend Cannock have mobility problems, the access issues should be addressed.
