I went to the Royal Hobart with a crush injury to my foot. And needed to make sure that the foot wasn,t broken. The urgent care clinic I called before were very busy and recommended to go to the emergency department at the Royal Hobart Hospital. I was in and out in 2 1/2 hours, luckily the Xray showed the foot wasn't broken. Everyone was very professional. My foot was nicely bandaged and detailed advice what to do at home given. (Ice, rest, bandage, pain relief). Many thanks Christa

Last night, Anzac Day I attended the ED of RHH with incredibly sore back and tightness of chest and shortness of breath. The service that I received was timely and very professional and thorough from all staff. My attending Doctor Steiner Hafthorsson (a visiting Doctor from Iceland) - he had great bedside manner and ensured I was looked after. All staff from the nurse taking blood, imaging staff, admission clerk and all nurses were great and I wish to thank them for looking after me. Thank you all

Both nights I was there, the soap dispenser was empty. In a hospital! Hygiene? So under resourced that emergency beds didn’t even have pillows the day we were here. Patient used his jacket as a pillow. THE BAD Under resourcing means waits of 5+ hours seem to be t... read more
