"UHMBT are one of the best in the Country"

About: Royal Lancaster Infirmary / Accident and emergency

I am a 78 years old white male living in Silverdale. Since 2016, I have been in Lancaster Royal Infirmary 7 times via A & E. All doctors, nurses, clinical support staff treated me with dignity and respect and I did the same. I was in the AMU, just last week, and have been in before in Coronary Care twice, several times in Orthopaedics and Trauma. An operation for partial meniscectomy which wasn't successful . I have been in FGH twice, once with pneumonia, and once with Pneumonia. I have never been in for longer than 5 days as there is a shortage of beds. On Tuesday of last week, I blacked in our local coop and was taken to LRI. with Atrial Flutter, but now have been diagnosed with left bundle block. Waiting to see Cardiologist and I'm told will probably have a pacemaker fitted. I have not been in WGH except once when I was admitted after sigmoidoscopy colonoscopy and gastroscopy.

I like WGH, as its smaller and friendly, to say that FGH and RL are bad. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ to all

Kind regards,
