Whilst visiting a relative on June 20th I actually tripped up on the kerb approaching the Richard Salt unit and ended up a patient myself. Immediately I fell I was surrounded by concerned staff from a number of disciplines who summoned a wheel chair and I was whisked off to the Minor Injuries Unit where I was seen in under one hour which considering the waiting area was fairly full was excellent. Pity we cannot mention names in a review but the staff member who saw me was thorough, courteous and very professional. My injuries were superficial abrasions to my hand , arms and head. I was discharged after the injuries were cleaned and dressed and I was given a Tetanus injection. At times when staff are too easily criticised could I say that my experience was that the care shown was excellent. Well done and thank you.
