Brilliant pediatrics department, the childrens assessment unit/ childrens ward staff were amazing with my son. He went in struggling with his breathing and every nurse and doctor we saw were checking in regularly, informative and so friendly towards him. I can't thank them enough for making his first hospital visit a positive experience, they got him feeling well enough to be treated at home quickly and with plenty of information and medicines. They showed me how to use his inhaler and gave some great advice too. We are very happy with the staff here, they are fantastic.
Gate 40 disgusting treatment of elderly patients. Nursing staff abrupt with no concern for patient welfare. My 87 year old father had an appointment for 12.00, we were told we could not wait with him as it was men only area, I asked roughly how long he would be, we were told to come back in two hours. Returned to department two hours later to find my father and another elderly gentleman still sitting there. The explanation from the rather rude nurse was that the theaters did not start until 1.30 and there were three other people before my father. We had no issues with there being other patients before my father but all their appointments were for 12.00. When I asked why his appointment was for 12.00, along with everone else when theaters did not start until 1.30, we were asked to leave again. We went off to get drinks for my father and the other elderly man that was still waiting and when we got back to gate 40 the door was locked. Ringing the bell over and over brought no one, a Dr came to enter and he let us in. The rude nurse brought out an abrupt Sister to us, I tried to explain that his mobility was not good and that sitting all that time did not help, the Sister said we are taking him now and as he tried to stand he fell backwards, I tried to tell her he was unstable on his feet and her attitude was disgusting. We were told not to go back to the department until they rang us, another 2 hours. As a family we will never again take our father to that hospital, at 87 years old, worked all his life, he deserves better. Filthy, more likely to come out with more than you went in with
The ambulance staff was amazing! I was admitted to hospital due to a laceration to my arm and lost about a cup and half of blood. Got to the hospital and there was no checks in place, they didn`t check my womb, they gave me some pain killers without even asking if ive taken anything prior, they never even asked about my mental state or if im suicidal.. The nurse in charge had a go at me because I was bleeding heavily in the waiting room and he didn`t want me to contaminate the chairs.. The other nurse, sighed at me and i asked him if he was fed up of me and he said "yes.." Edit - I even got penalised and criticised because I couldn`t remember my allergies off hand, im not a doctor nor a gp, I don`t know.. Anyways im shocked of the lack of care that was given. I even sat on the floor due to lack of chairs and not 1 person came to ask if I was ok. The patients cared alot more about me than the staff its self. I gotta give a shout out to the woman that was catering, she was lovely, she offered me a drink and she was the only 1 outa all of the staff, cared.. Anyways spend 3 mins with the crysis team and got discharged.. I had little clothing on and they was more than happy for me to go walk 3 miles, covered in blood, in the rain and cold.. I will not and repeat will not to go to pinderfields ever again.. Utterly discusting place.. This is what my tax payments are going to?.. Gunna work a few hours less at work and sit under the bracket me thinks..
The staff at Pinderfields were truly lovely to me after a recent scare. Every single person I spoke to was lovely and caring. I did have quite the wait but that’s to be expected in A&E! (I was sent there by 111 to clarify)
My husband unfortunately fell in the Hepworth art gallery last Sunday. We were on a mini break, from Cheshire. Taken to A/E at Pinderfields. V busy, but staff professional, efficient & helpful. Moved to resus. Then ward 12. Everyone helpful. Efficient & helpful. V good care offered
