What I liked
I had a laparoscopy in a private hospital, was not offered anti-emetic with anaesthetic & was invited to leave only 4 hours after operation. At St. James, the anaesthetist consulted me properly, I had no nausea afterwards, and - apart from some delay getting painkillers from the nightshift staff - the care was excellent throughout. My compliments and thanks to the staff.
What could be improved
It seems a little odd that only one nurse on duty was allowed to give pain relief. Another patient in the ward had to wait two hours in considerable pain before getting relief.
"Impressive"
