Review titled Maternity/Antenatal Care Appalling
by Anonymous - Posted on 12 June 2024
Stayed on the Cedar ward and nothing but a shambles from start to finish. Can hear the midwives badmouthing colleagues, the job, and how mundane the activities they carry out are which doesn’t exactly give you confidence if they aren’t showing care or enthusiasm in what they do. Also had to remind, multiple times, to check observations which were always hours late, then ask for pain relief and remind multiple times. MWS Staff just sat most of the day chatting while friends and relatives are stuck at the doors waiting to come out. Whilst the facilities are outdated and poor you would think the staff make up for it in the attitude and general politeness - far from it. The staff make you want to get out of the hospital quicker than you came in. For anyone reading, choose a different hospital. The sooner the maternity services are closed down the better and get some staff who actually want to do a good job rather than just sit and do as little as possible with little effort even when called upon. Feel sad having to write this as a first experience in Heartlands. It will definitely be my last.

Review titled Worst place to go to
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 09 June 2024
Staff are very rude in the A&E waiting area and I waited for 10 hours to be told go home and be on pain killers for 5 days and if not improved come back for us to check. It is like saying go home for 5 days and if you dont die come back for us to treat you. Horrible

Review titled The staff in the Children’s Emergency Department
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Alvina Rizwan - Posted on 17 June 2024
I ended up in the Children’s Emergency Department at Heartlands hospital on the 15th of June Saturday Night with my sister & I was really touched by the level of care and compassion my sister recieved. I am not sure of any names but all the staff who were on shift during that night were absolutely amazing. They really took care of us and made us feel really comfortable and to be quite honest it has shown me that people like this still exist. I hope they are shown this and see how much we appreciated their help and support that particular night. Thank you so much once again & keep doing the great work you guys are doing!!

Review titled No information
Rated 4 stars out of 5

I have a csection booked in for the 10th of July and the hospital have told me to arrive at 7.30. They won't give me any more information than that. I just wanted to know what time my procedure would be/how many ladies are booked in on the same day.

Review titled Delivery suite, induction of baby, exceptional
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Mohammed Ali - Posted on 29 May 2024
We have received an exceptional service from heartland hospital for the induction process for childbirth. I want to give a shout out to the midwife’s and all the theatre staff and everyone in the delivery suite unit. The team work very hard to do all that they can to provide an exceptional service. All the consultants did an excellent job with our C section, the theatre staff were very accommodating. Although a difficult labour and delivery, we very happy with the standards of service provided. It’s only right to leave a positive review! As this is a true reflection of our experience.

Review titled The Best Staff
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Mr and Mrs lungley - Posted on 13 April 2024
Had surgery booked on ward 11. From the moment we arrived, every single member of staff on that ward were fantastic. I honestly can’t praise them enough. All of them were helpful, kind, funny and made you feel very welcome. Facilities (beds, decor and pilllows etc) could really do with an upgrade but that didn’t matter when you have staff like that. Keep being you and keep making patients smile staff on ward 11 on the 12/04/2024. This is a shout out to the cleaners, carers, nurses, consultants and surgeons. You are a credit to a tired old heartlands hospital.
