I was recently admitted to Busselton Hospital for a hip replacement
All the staff I saw from the clerical nursing doctor and physios were all amazing and I cannot fault them which I tried to feed that back during my stay
The food was lovely and the staff that served it were always smiling and happy
There were a few downsides however a patient who appeared to have some issues came in to the room shouting and swearing seemingly unhappy with their stay, it was quite upsetting and scary as I wasn’t sure they would attack me. Thankfully the nurses were able to assist them out of my room and take them away. There as also someone screaming through the night and when I asked the nurse what was happening they apologised and said it was a patient who has cognition problems and doesn’t know what they are doing
Surely, in my opinion, this is not the place for these types of patients?
Finally when I woke up after surgery, I felt the bed I was on looked liked something from 1970s and didn’t work when not plugged in
The rails dropped suddenly at one point and I was worried it would catch someone’s fingers.
Overall the staff were amazing and I can’t fault them
