"i would be sarcastic & say ..."

About: Hull Royal Infirmary

(as the patient),

What I liked

i would be sarcastic & say leaving, but the number of people huddled around the entrance in their bedclothes, smoking & coughing make even that unpleasant.

Medical staff are helpful & pleasant.

What could be improved

Bags of dirty laundry left for over 2 hours on several floors by the lifts.

Contract Staff weaving past less mobile patients to use the lifts.

General dirtiness: cups on floor, sweet/crisp wrappers on floor, dirty handmarks on doors, dead insect on window sills.

Generally every visit i make is a very unpleasant experince. Thank goodness I've been able to move some appointments to a different hospital.
