Trauma and Orthopaedic Unit (Stafford) Waiting Room Disgrace !


Well the following day I had to attend an 8AM appointment with the Orthopaedic surgeon to review the bleeding and to evaluate if any work needed to be carried out, grafts stitched etc.

We arrived at 7:59am for the appointment to the shutters being down. A nurse asked us to wait in the waiting room and once the surgeon was on the ward she would call us.

This is where the desire for this post was born.

I walked into the waiting room and I was disgusted in what state the room was in.

I took a number of pictures with my phone but believe me it does not do it justice.

The room was dirty, messy, untidy and generally disgraceful.

I would have expected a third world hospital to have looked like this.

On the walls leading into the ward just outside the waiting room there were these small boxes fitted to the wall that had a computer voice asking you to use the special hand wash to stop germs spreading. Yerr right what out of the waiting room mabe!


Please Review Pictures and feel free to comment.


1. Dirty floor rubbish and paper rappers everywhere.

2. Chairs scattered around room looked old and dirty.

3. One broken chare just asking for an accident clame if you sat on it.

4. One light not working.

5. Bin by coffee machine over flowing.

6. What looked like a wooden pallet leaning up against wall?

7. Paint peeling off walls

8. Radiator looked like it was from the 70s and grotty.


What a disgrace, come on people first impressions!
