Review of Emergency Care Centre SGH
25th May 2021


Currently sat here still waiting to be seen, been sat here 3hrs waiting. Which is fine I understand can be busy. But seriously the way the reception staff and nurses are talking about patients , everyone knows their names , address and age which I’ve always found a strange one. A young girl came In blatantly scared and upset nearly 30 weeks pregnant and was bleeding they told her that her partner couldn’t be here which was fair enough but then she left and as she left a member of staff muttered well if you want to put your baby at risk , a nurse then followed her outside and persisted to tell her that she was putting her baby at risk . The staff then all gossiped about it being a safeguarding issue and calling her unfit and that her boyfriend looked about 12.

Suggested improvements
Staff shouldn’t be talking about patients like this, people shouldn’t be able to hear other people’s personal information, also non of you much care about a baby under 21 weeks old ! I’ve been in her situation yet i would of stayed for any hope of saving one of my many babies , but now it’s safeguarding because she’s over 29 weeks pregnant. But it’s not safe guarding that no body really cares till this stage. I still remember when I lost one of many juniper at 18 weeks and I was in agony, 3 nurses stood round me and then left the room as I said I felt a massive gush and was soaking , turned out juniper was making his way and there was blood everywhere but not one member of staff stayed with me because my baby had already died. Shes a scared 17 year old and let’s be honest they live together anyways would it if been so hard to make an exception. On the plus side I recently had a healthy baby boy at this hospital and the staff were amazing , I suppose it depends on the ward etc

Review of Ward 26
17th May 2021


During my stay here it has taken a while for a doctor to come and see me to tell me what is going on but other than that the care from the midwives and student midwives have been absolutely amazing, I couldn’t fault them at all

Suggested improvements
I think there should be more doctors so we don’t have to wait around to know what is going on

Review of 24 IAAU
5th May 2021


All the staff on the gynaecologist ward were lovely very helpful sorted anything that I needed easy to talk to. The blinds were closed when ever they needed to be always checking that I was okay. They went through everything explained what they needed too.

Suggested improvements
Being on a ward that is suitable for gynaecology would of been the most appropriate . I had a stay over on the ward where there is older people that are very ill it was very distressing in a already sad situation. Being woken up throughout the night. The lack of sleep caused unnecessary stress which is not what I needed. Talking to staff they said they had there own ward taken away from them which from a someone who has been threw a miscarriage would of been much nicer. My partner wasn’t allowed onto the ward to stay with me in that stressful situation. They explain that on there old ward I would of had my own room where my partner could of stayed with me. I also had a bad experience with a lady at the A&E desk she was very abrupt didn’t listen properly to my checking in details wrote on my notes that I had a termination!!!! When I hadn’t I had a missed miscarriage which obviously got passed on to staff on the gynaecologist ward and the poor nurse was talking to me about my situation and was saying that I’d had a termination which upset me as I wouldn’t terminate a pregnancy then this probably made the poor nurse uncomfortable as well.

Fast flow through a&e, I was seen and treated within an hour. Because I have to self isolate I was not able to go to the pharmacy to collect medications so the doctor arranged for someone to collect them for me
