Feedback
We value your feedback on our services. Whether you have positive experiences to share or concerns that require attention, your input guides us in our continuous improvement efforts.
Staying safe during your visit
In line with national NHS guidance, we've removed several Covid-19 measures and although masks are optional now, we understand if you prefer to wear one for added peace of mind.
Visiting a patient
We value the positive impact that visits have on the care and comfort of our patients and have implemented a range of safety measures to keep everyone safe and secure when visiting our hospitals.
Preventing and tackling conflict
Our hospitals are very busy and you may need to wait longer for care than usual.
These challenges can be very frustrating for everyone. As part of our response to preventing and tackling conflict, we have set out clear expectations on how we should all behave towards one another.
