"Facilities"

About: Royal Perth Hospital / Infectious Diseases Service & Sexual Health Clinic & Hospital in the Home (HITH)

(as a service user),

I attended Royal Perth Hospital Ainslie House 48 Murray Street for an outpatient sexual health appointment. 

The staff I saw were exceptional from front of staff to nursing and doctors. The nurses and doctors showed care and compassion.

I believe the facilities however are not fit for purpose. The waiting area and front desk location does not allow for privacy to be maintained in confirmation of patient details / check-in. 

In addition, the bathroom and specimen collection area is, in my opinion, old and requires prompt upgrade to meet modern standards and improve cleanability. 

I empathise with staff working in this areas due to the apparent challenging infrastructure which with they are using.

Dear Service-User,

Thank you for providing your valuable feedback about Royal Perth Hospital’s Sexual Health Clinic and I am glad the staff have delivered such exceptional service.

I acknowledge that providing patients with adequate privacy and suitable clean facilities is important. I am sorry the facilities did not meet your expectations and for any distress that was caused.

Your feedback has been shared with the Director of Facilities Management for consideration when planning future hospital upgrades.

Thank you again and I wish you all the best.

Kind Regards,

Mr Ben Noteboom
