"Car Parking and smoking"

About: University Hospital Of North Durham

Anything else?

The car parking at UHND is horrendous I have had my scan appointments booked for me at around 2.00pm each time and have to take half a days leave from work so I leave in enough time to get parked and sit in the line of traffic that backs up to the main round and then around the round about. Last time I waited her for over an hour to get parked. I think the car park at this hospital has not been thought out too great. Smoking - on the way into the hospital entrance you are greeted by a crowed of people all smoking, this is meant to be a health care provision and you allow people of smoke outside you main entrance spreading poison fumes to other people again not well thought out and a bad welcome to UHND if after the torment of finding a car parking space you are then greeted by a fog of horrible nicotine smoke.
