    Becarefull leaving your loved one with these people. They make things up and team is highly disrespectful towards visitors and if they can treat visitors in such way, what are they doing with patients. Everyone with bad experience should complaint with the local health watch and then with local council. Don't let them get away with

    -Highly disrespectful. -Do not work holistically with patience. -Treat women like garbage - reception team do no help, but make things worse for carer or parent, does not guide them to other services or teams that can help. - physically abusive according to patients. This service needs to be looked at legally.

    No ratings. Unacceptable attitudes, patronising, incorrect conclusions and insisting on impractical and unethical practices , this hospital should be shut down.The SLAM nhs Trust is a very concerning issue, they have very pathetic tactics when it comes negatively affecting quality of life.

    Worse experience EVER. When I was admitted the first thing I noticed was the amount of flies flying around on the nelson ward. Even more in the kitchen area. Staff making sly jokes about other patients. Patients were smoking in the bathroom and it was quite obvious but no one done anything about it even Though the whole ward stank. The bathrooms are more than dirty !! There were some lovely staff members there and I’ll always have respect for them. But a lot needs tweaking. God forbid but if I ever get admitted again to that hospital I’d actually run away . Never again

    Awful hospital! Staff are not helpful. No decent activity to keep patients active. Very few staff engage with patients. Avoid this hospital!!

    Another representation of a criminal performance on behalf of psychiatrists. Simply disgusting. There will be a Brexit, and not a soft one. Greetings from a German, abused tourist.

    Initially I was frustrated by the difficulty I experienced contacting the staff in the office in Luther King ward; but but that changed when I guess they had a bit more time to spare me. They are busy, after all, and doing a pretty thankless job! My friend now is in the Rosa Parks ward, which I prefer and so far, during my infrequent visits, I have only had positive experiences. I found the admin. staff helpful and friendly, and the one psychologist I spoke to, compassionate and caring, and I thank everyone for the job they do here, knowing it is impossible to get it right all the time and sincerely hope they are able to help my dear friend back to a more settled and fulfilling life.

    I have been trying to contact my mentally I’ll mother who only allows me to contact her and the staff in florance ward make it impossible. They claim she’s not there half the time and put the phone down on me when the other half of the time I can get through to her fine. They are extremely rude. The worst one is the African/carribean receptionist as he just straight up puts the phone down on me and claims my mother isn’t there. If you can’t do you job work somewhere where you’re not the only means of contact with some mentally unstable patients. I can only imagine how they treat the patients if they can’t even be bothered to answer the phone.

    This hospital has to be one of the worst in the whole of England. After going to visit a loved one and was met with such awful disrespectful and uncaring staff, I’m now actually scared for his safety. Only one staff member called Henry showed any humanity. Disgraceful ungodly place and people.

  • 1/5 Neil G. 1 year ago on Google
    I was brought here (at first) in 1999. I was sectioned and brought here on at least two other occasions thereafter. In my opinion, I was not treated fairly throughout my long inpatient stay here of about 6 months on each sectioning. At first I was prescribed medicine without having been told what the medicine was for, what it will do, and without having taken my blood or conduct of testing etc. Following my asking, I was refused the pamphlet given with all medicines. I was not given a diagnosis for weeks after being prescribed medicine which I had to consume or I was given an injection by force. I overheard a member of staff telling people that I was a lunatic who was psychotic and generally very ill. As I wasn't diagnosed, I did not know how he knew this! The staff was untrustworthy and unapproachable. There was an occasion where I wanted more to eat but the staff member took the food for himself saying that he has a family to feed. I recall being reluctant to be hospitalised as the place wasn't comfortable and are locked wards. I was brought into hospital escorted by police in handcuffs. The experience was depressing and agonisingly incriminating. To this day, I do not understand why all staff involved here do not talk to patients before heavy hand and help them understand that they are being assessed or otherwise suffering from a diagnosed mental health condition. Because I didn't trust them (which they would say is paranoia) it wasn't easy to listen to a mostly bias prognosis, especially because of incrimination and lack of investigative science/ medical attention. I now live with depression. I would say that my health deteriorates when engaging with SLAM. I think of SLAM as not civil. Having been employed as management for over 2 years before my inpatients, I feel that the system isn't managed effectively or strictly. I also felt like I wasn't given options. I had to always be an inpatient and never given a home treatment team or other!

    Absolutely, the worst hospital I have been to. As a recent patient, there is no recreational activity to participate in. And horrible doctors who threaten to put you on more medication if you disagree with treatment and rightfully try and maintain your dignity and human rights. Also sexual advances were made to me by a male asian doctor with glasses. He belittled me and also humiliated me several times. This hospital is a disgrace and needs to be shut down for good

    They make the rules up as they go along. Don't treat the patients with respect OR dignity. Don't really consider what the patient wants or needs. They have a gym on site and that's probably the only perk. An large amount of patients are voluntary and there's not many sectioned which has an unfair amount of people going out all day and come and go as they please whilst others are left bored and contained in a small ward 24/7. We get 30 minutes a week with a doctor that doesn't ever speak to us otherwise. I'd say it's horrible in general.

    These people are absolutely atrocious they tried tried belittle and intimidate me. I went to visit my mother and this remy man that you see in the picture got in my face when I simply asked for his name. the reason I wanted his name was because of I saw him treating my mother and other patients like animal's. Just because you have mental health it does not mean your an animal why they are being treated in that way really confuses me. I am not sleeping properly at night because I am scared for my mother’s safety and others. Also the Mary woman you see in the photo I asked her to open the door very politely and she flung her hand at me like I was a dog and I asked her not fling me like that she begun to be very vicious. Who ever has there family members in there I suggest you remove them immediately. REMY (also that is not his real name) need to be fired immediately and MARY (probably not her real name) needs to be fired immediately.
