My little boy had a fall one April Monday, we went to Minor Injury Unit in Frome Tuesday morning, lots of children hobbling around but we were seen within 1 hour, X-ray taken and possible fracture. Fitted with sling and told fracture clinic at RUH, Bath would call.
We didn’t get a call but a letter and saw them a week later. Waiting time was exceptionally small and Dr was very good at explaining to me as a parent but also talking to a 5 year old. The RUH in Bath and the MUI in Frome have given excellent service given the cuts and shortages in all departments. I felt completely looked after and not patronised and think the NHS staff are doing a fantastic job. The last time I had to use the NHS was around Christmas with my 3 year old at Taunton Hospital with burst ear drum, cannot thank 111 and hospital enough for not making our Christmas a sad one. Not sure how it is done but amazing work all around from all staff involved. Huge thank you.
