"Finding a department (Clinical Investigations) Medical Unit 1. NO MAP"

About: Royal Lancaster Infirmary

(as a carer),

I am supporting my 84-year-old Mother-in-Law who needs to attend the Clinical Investigations ward in Medical Unit 1. I know where Medical unit 1 is and I have worked out where Clinical investigations are but there is no map online to show how far the unit is from the front entrance - surely in the 21st century there could be an online map to help people - my Mother-in-law is very unwell and not knowing where the unit is has caused her a lot of extra stress.

As there is no online map, I would have thought it would be fairly easy to provide directions and a small printed map showing the location of the appointment.

Thank you for taking the time to write about you recent experience.

Unfortunately this has been sent to myself here at Blackpool Teaching Hospitals.

I will advise care opinion of this so that they can forward this to University Hospitals Morecambe Bay
