Share review of Yeovil District Hospital

Yeovil District Hospital 2015-10-29 Person 4 5 0

I was admitted to hospital and spent the first two nights on the Kingston Wing, this is because they had no other beds in the hospital. The staff on the Kingston wing were exceptional, it was clean and they were very thorough. I was then moved to the Jasmine Ward where I found a significant difference. The staff on the Jasmine ward are excellent but they are too short staffed and spread far too thin. I feel a lot of the patients here should be in a home rather than in a hospital. The staff are subjected to abuse physically and verbally and I think this is disgusting. I think they are remarkable at their jobs but they need more support. It's physically impossible for them to meet the needs of patients as and when patients need them but they do there best. I feel the structure of this ward needs to be looked at. I realise the Kingston wing is private but I feel the level of care at the Kingston wing should be delivered throughout the hospital.
