Healthwatch Bromley, Healthwatch Bexley and Healthwatch Greenwich undertook an enter and view visit to Green Parks House on 4 May 2016.
Generally, patients and staff have positive experiences of Green Parks House. Patients said that they had positive relationships with the staff and were able to approach them.
The Authorised Representatives observed positive interaction between staff and patients during the visit.
There was lots of information available to patients on the notice boards (in all three wards) regarding aspects of their physical and mental health. Staff were also observed assisting patients who needed support.
Authorised Representatives heard concerns about staffing levels and how this limits staff and patient interaction due to time constraints. Staff and patients share the frustration that staff do not have enough time to spend with patients, which impacts on the level of care they can provide.
