About: Royal Blackburn Hospital

Dear Anonymous I am really sorry that you've had such a poor experience of care and support at our hospital sites, and that you feel this has not been supportive of your sister's recovery. Also if you would like to talk through your visits and views with one of our Patient Experience team so we can understand the bits of this that could be shared with other teams as a way to make our services more personal we would really value this. You can either contact me (Wendy Stobbs) on 01254 734471 or email me on wendy.stobbs@elht.nhs.uk. Many thanks for your comment and apologies for the delay in a reponse
