"Out patient x ray dept shortcomings"

About: Orpington Hospital

I recently had to visit regarding complication with one of my knee replacements. I was asked to change into a gown in a booth which is in the public area of the x ray dept. Main failing was the bench in the booth, it is much too low for an adult with knee problems and removing my shoes was quite painfull as a result. The omission of a handrail is also an omission. As the x ray dept is most likely to be used by patients with mobility problems, this really is an oversight.

Thank you for sharing your experience and for bringing to our attention various aspects of facilities in X-ray which we should follow up on.

I will pass on your comments.
