During an inspection looking at part of the service

People told us they were very happy with the care and service they were receiving at the hospital. We were told 'I have improved 100% since I arrived here. All of the staff are smashing'. Another patient said 'the staff never stop but they all smile and are very kind and caring. Nothing is ever a trouble for them'.

In addition to talking to patients we also spoke with staff, examined documentation associated with people's care and observed how people were being supported and cared for.

Another person praised the cleanliness of the ward and the domestic staff.
