I needed to attend a pre-operation Covid-19 test three days prior to the operation. I attended Lincoln hospital and parked in the Main car park as I had not received any instructions on where to go with my pre-operation paperwork.
On asking where to go at the enquiry desk I was directed to a door by oncology and told to ring a specific number. Fortunately I have a mobile phone as there is no phone available to use! I was then told I was in the wrong place and needed to drive round to the rear of the hospital and look for a blue tent!
I eventually found a blue and white gazebo and had the test but was very stressed as I was technically late for the appointment.
Why wasn’t a little map included in the original paperwork which would save a lot of stress. Also, don’t expect everyone to have a mobile phone
