Nurses great

Story from nhs.uk

"Nurses great"

About: Bradford Royal Infirmary

The staff on ward 11 were great and very attentive though I had very little feedback from the surgical team. The food served on the ward however was not very good. There were options for gluten free, vegan etc but no option for anyone avoiding processed food. I asked what option they had for someone who doesn't eat grains, sugar or seed oils and there were very little only a couple of low nutrient or high carb meals available. Seeing how type 2 diabetes consumes more than 10% of the NHS budget I find it incredible in this day and age you can't get a healthy low carb real food meal in a place supposedly making us better.

Hi

My name is Catherine and part of my role is responding to posts on Care Opinion.

Thank you for taking the time to post your feedback after your stay on ward 11.

It is lovely to hear that you found the staff on the ward great and very attentive.

It is disappointing to hear that you had very little feedback from the surgical team.

I am sorry to hear that there wasn't a suitable menu that catered for your needs.

I have spoken with the Manager in charge of catering and they are looking to establish a Menu Planning Group and have patients involved with that.

If you would like to be involved with this please email me at:

catherine.healy@bthft.nhs.uk

I will share your comments with the team on ward 11 and the catering team.

Thank you again for sharing your feedback,

Kind regards

Catherine Healy
