  1. Review titled Amazingly Quick Service at A&E

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Mike - Posted on 24 June 2024

    I recently went over on my ankle, and upon hearing a crack, decided to attend A&E at the hospital. Being honest our expectations were to be sat there for hours, first of all to wait for an initial assessment, then another wait for x-ray, then back to A&E for the news. After checking in with the friendly reception team, I'd only been sat down for 5-10 minutes before being called through to be assessed. I was sent for an x-ray, which after arriving in the department, this was completed within another 5-10 minutes, upon which I returned to the A&E dept. After waiting for literally another few minutes, I was called through to confirm I'd broken my ankle, was fitted with a boot, given an out-patient appointment and was on my way home within an hour of arriving. A very surprising but most welcome experience given all the bad press and things you hear about people being sat around for hours. Thankyou to all the staff involved, and what a great experience.

  2. Review titled World class ward

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 29 June 2024

    Recently had my baby on the labour ward at Scunthorpe hospital and was blown away by the kindness and care we received from all staff on the ward. I now refer to it as the world class ward because it’s the best experience I’ve had throughout my pregnancy and could not have been more grateful for the wonderful midwives, students and doctors I got to meet whilst there. Thank you so much everyone!

  3. Review titled Great practice

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    I was on cubical 4 and the staff were willing to make their patients smile. They were all very friendly and helped me feel comfortable. They are always nearby if you need them. Provide quick and effective care. Go above and beyond to ensure their patients have everything that they need. Appreciated the care I received whilst I was at hospital. All of the staff were very helpful and supportive. Thank you to the staff that were caring for me.

  7. Review titled Great team

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 08 March 2024

    I brought myself into A&E on Thursday afternoon due to abdominal pain and I couldn’t get in at my gp, unfortunately the receptionist didn’t check me in correctly so I was waiting four hours before I was seen but once checked in the doctor was amazing as getting me seen and explained everything to me really listened to me as I had a lot of symptoms and had been in this pain for a few weeks. After bloods, urine sample they knew what was wrong and I was away with antibiotics. I want to thank the nurse for being so gentle and polite and the doctor for really listening and getting to the bottom of the issue. Credit to our NHS

  8. Review titled No sleep or rest.

    Rated 2 stars out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 04 March 2024

    Currently in ward 23 undergoing observations. Blood pressure, temperature taken every 4 hours making a good nights sleep night on impossible. It's noisy in the corridor outside the ward at night as well with staff talking quite loudly with seemingly little or no consideration for people trying to sleep. During the day there consistent noise from staff talking pretty much all the time in the bay. It got so bad today my wife who was visiting had to ask them to keep it down. I honestly cannot wait to get home to a good night sleep as I believe the lack of quality rest is seriously hindering my recovery and getting quality rest at home will be highly beneficial to myself.

  9. Review titled Good Care

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by H C GORING - Posted on 13 February 2024

    I brought my Mum to A & E on Sunday, with her care ultimately being completed by the sdec team. Everything went very smoothly and she received great and thorough care. From the triage nurse, to the porters and the consultants, we were treated exceptionally well

  10. Review titled A and e..

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 04 February 2024

    Staff fantastic but seating needs rearranging..being face to face with poorly people is not ideal especially people vomiting . Chairs should all face one way. Vending machine doesn't offer a water option or a full fat drink..lots of people allergic to sweetners in fizzy drinks. Two televisions but not switched on. Just some soothing music would be appreciated. But must say all nurses and doctors were so kind and friendly
