  2. Review titled Amazing service

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Sue Thorpe - Posted on 28 November 2023

    I had an accident and broke my ankle. My ankle then needed to be operated on so it could be pinned & platted. On the Tuesday afternoon seeing a consultant I was put on the trauma list. Wednesday morning at 8.00am I was phoned & asked to be at Theatre Arrivals at 11.00am. I was met by the Sister who introduced me to the nurse who was to oversee my care on the ward . 1.00pm I went down for surgery everyone I met were friendly ,supportive & very kind. I returned from surgery with such kindness & care from all the staff on the ward. The ward was immaculately clean a credit to everyone involved with it !! I left the ward at 6.00pm for home what a fabulous service Barnsley Hospital. Thank you

  3. Review titled Excellent care, communication and treatment

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Mr. Ray Ward - Posted on 06 October 2023

    On the 04/10/2023 I was subjected to diagnostic endoscopy and gastroscopy on the Day Surgery / Endoscopy Unit. I would like to praise all the staff on the unit and the nurse who offered me a telephone consultation before my visit. I was treated with kindness, care and understanding and given ample opportunities to ask questions. The procedure was carried out very efficiently and with a high degree of professionalism, the results were given to me shortly afterwards along with information regarding changes I need to make as a result of the investigations. The NHS and staff within are subjected to a high level of stress and pressure, none of this was evident in any of my dealings with everyone I met. If there were a star rating I would be awarding the team, and the hospital 5 stars. Keep up the excellent work. Ray ~Ward

  4. Review titled Second to non service, staff and care

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Kirsty Bogic - Posted on 23 January 2024

    I was admitted early to maternity services as my baby decided to arrive prematurely as a result of placental bleeding. From the ambulance service to the staff on arrival to the staff who brought toast- the care was incredible. I was well informed at every step of my journey from the consultant, anaesthetist, midwives, auxiliary staff, every single one was respectful, supportive and determined to ensure I had the best possible care and I can not thank them enough for the service they gave to myself and my daughter to ensure her safe arrival. I really was in the best hands of care and doubt I would have received better care elsewhere. Thank you to all the staff who looked after us during delivery, our stay in hospital on the ward and the staff who looked after us in children’s A and E when she had Jaundice. Each one of you is incredible and we thank you!

  6. Review titled Great practice!

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 26 October 2023

    I could not fault the care I received at Barnsley hospital. After a quick turn of events during my labour the doctors, nurses and midwife’s were amazing! They explained everything and made sure myself and my baby boy were both safe. They delivered him and proved the best care for both of us! They reassured my partner and supported him also. The midwife came to check I understood why decisions were made at the time of my labour and made sure I was happy with the care. The care I have received after has been amazing also! I would highly recommend Barnsley hospital. A huge thank you to them all and the sapphire team that have looked after us right from pregnancy to the day we’ve been discharged. We will be forever grateful…

  7. Review titled Well supported through elective surgery

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 03 December 2023

    My abdominal surgery was not an emergency, but that was the closest category on this form. The theatre team were very reassuring, surgery went well and then I was given practical support to get up and start moving, and emotional support to prepare me to go home.

  8. Review titled First Class Service

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by David Whitworth - Posted on 01 November 2023

    Transferred to Barnsley DGH early October 2023 from Sheffield, following fracture to right humerus; in short, broken arm. From my first visit to the most recent appointment (01.11.23) faultless service from all staff members in the Orthopaedic and X Ray departments, including reception, all nurses, doctors and consultant. Can't thank them enough for their patience, courtesy and high standard of care. The overall service was exemplary, communication was efficient, and delivery by everyone demonstrated a warmth and caring attitude that made my situation a pleasure rather than a trauma. Due to satisfactory progress, I was referred for physiotherapy on 01.11.23, and later the same day had my first session booked for the following week. I cannot stress enough the patient care I received from the Orthopaedic department was 'first class'. No long waits, no wondering who does what, how and when. Every concern dealt with promptly by a team of individuals who's commitment, attitude and application made this patients situation easier to bear. Sincere thanks and appreciation for everyone's efforts.

  9. Review titled Very good experience

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 30 October 2023

    Appointment at coloscopy dept. Excellent service. All female staff, treated with respect and dignity, very good experience. Welcomed by named staff, private facilities to undress, small, treatment room with only 3 staff present.. This is a first class way to run a service in what is an intimate and sometimes scary procedure.

    by Ian Crawford - Posted on 10 September 2023

    went in for procedure, then 24 hours on new ICU - staff absolutely fantastic and caring as usual, very re-assuring especially when “Though I remembered that name” it was lovely to see staff again who looked after me nearly 2 years ago and then over night on ward 35, again best treatment and more familiar faces - Thanks everyone
