"Best and worst"

About: Airedale General Hospital

You hear so much good and bad about the nhs we weren't sure what to expect from ward 17. It was both good and and bad. Some of the doctors and nurses were absolutely kind and professional doing everything to make things easy as possible doing a fantastic job / a credit to the nhs. Others, were uncaring and ignorant appearing to make every effort to undo the good work of their colleagues. The consultant especially was rude and insensitive to our child's problem / not listening to anything, tutting, yawning, aggressive, clock watching and generally crass / an exceptionally bad example to the junior staff. She should ask herself if she's in the right job maybe she's better suited to ppi telesales. Ward 17 is a microcosm of the best and worst of the health service - share what's good about it and remove what's bad about it - you could fix the nhs.

It is disappointing to read that you have had such a mixed experience whilst your child was on Ward 17. We very much wish to discuss this with you further and urge you to contact our Patient Advice and Liaison Service (PALS) team on 01535 294019.
