I brought my son to A&E three times due to his cough and high temperature. We were sent away two times before finally being admitted on the third.
The doctors were all very good and all, however, I told the doctor he wasn't drinking properly. I feel that he should have been admitted earlier and so found being told to go home to not be very useful. All the nurses were incredibly friendly. I just felt that the doctor who I saw on the first two occasions just was not listening and taking in what I was saying.
Up on the ward it has been really great. The staff have been amazing and really lovely and the consultant was very thorough up on the ward. Overall, it has been a good experience up here. I cannot think of anything that needs improved on the ward itself.
