"the fact i will never go back to the..."

About: Royal Oldham Hospital

What I liked

the fact i will never go back to the maternity department due to suffering a post pregnancy hysterectomy

What could be improved

the staffs attitudes (head consultant/certain midwives/certain HCAs), cleaniless of the ward both post and ante natal - all the cleaner was cleaning was the top of the bin, the mirror and the top of the light - what about the floors and the actual things patients touch and use!!!!! when i complained about anything it fell on deaf ears.

Anything else?

noone has responded to my written complaint about my care whilst at the hospital. i had made a vocal complaint to the consultant i saw 12 weeks after returning home and had a visit from a senior midwife and the ward manager whose promises fell on deaf ears ( where is the post preg hysterectomy leaflet you promised you would set up and asked for my input been over a year and still nothing!!)
