Facilities were clean and of a good standard and the staff were kind, friendly and professional.
It was great to have the procedure which didn't involve having a general anaesthetic. The first few days post procedure were painful but manageable with pain relief . Did exactly what was asked of me to help my healing process .
I was in the Cotswold unit for gyno surgery and feel that there was nothing that needed to be improved.Becky the nurse and Samantha the care assistant were kind,helpful and made my stay very positive.many thanks in fact to all the staff from Medi room surgery to ward. in fact in the one night and two days I was in ,strange as it sounds I had fun!a lot of care and laughter
Cannot thank them enough!! Amazing.
Brillant care
All the staff were kind and responsive.
The food was very good, although for a patient with Type 1 diabetes there was only a choice of high carbohydrate foods at breakfast.
I was impressed by how many nurses and health care assistants there were on the surgical ward.
I have been there a number of times, both for myself and with/for my wife who has parkinson. I have yet to have a negative experience!
Hospital team covered up mistakes from a surgeon until I as a patient stopped it and demanded answers
I was in ICU and then a ward for a total of 4 days. The staff on ICU could not be faulted although there was a lack of clarity about the time my husband was allowed to stay (we are not local to the hospital) .
The quality of the food was an outstanding feature and I welcome the commitment to local provision of ingredients cooked on the premises. Each day there was a wide choice, cheerfully served with hot dishes arriving hot. I particularly enjoyed the chocolate and beetroot dessert, a recipe of the in-house chef I understand.
I have nothing but praise for Southmead. Every department treated me like a favourite grandfather.
P.S. I like the optimism - with an age rage up to 150
