Scarborough General Hospital

"Was.sent up to Scarborough hospital ( last one before they diverted york phew) as I pulled my back out very badly. Took 2 paramedics to get me off the bed , down the stairs and into the ambulance. Can I just say they was amazing but the female one kept making me laugh ( oooochh). I do see the funny side now I can actually move without having a back spasm. E.d where great too just had a long wait. Then was sent up to e.a.u. the doctors and staff where great had a 3 day stay up there. The hospital staff are so pushed to there limit. some staff where doing days and nights"

"Went to Scarborough Hospital with my Mum. She had broken a bone in her hand after a fall whilst we were on holiday. From the 2 ambulance crew who came to us first and then the staff at the hospital, they were all amazing and personable. The ambulance crew went out of their way to take care of us, fetching tea/sandwiches and making us laugh, they were lovely. We just wanted to say thanks to you all, we would be lost without the NHS!"

"I am a visitor to this delightful seaside town was on holiday fell broke 6 ribs also got a chest infection. Been in hospital 1 week in maple ward. The staff are first class nothing is to much for them. This hospital is far superior to all the awful west Midlands hospitals I have been. The cumberland hotel were excellent packing my luggage and bringing it to the hospital. A final update bought hospital suddenly got discharged arrived home at 9pm 10am admitted next day with covid and pneumonia into West midland hospital scarborough obviously did not want me there with infections. I now award them no stars"

"My partner had an appointment today on the midwives department, all the staff are lovely apart from one old battle axe midwife/nurse. Who we found very very rude. 2 weeks before we encountered the same nurse been rude to a younger midwife who wanted access to use her blood pressure machine but the old nurse wouldn't let her, even though she wasn't using the machine. I suggest the nurse in question needs a few more training courses in how to be more pleasant to people or if she's so stressed out in her job thinks about taking retirement. Everyone else working in the hospital are so friendly, supportive and helpful. It's such a shame one person can leave you with a bad impression."

"My daughter has had issues with respiratory health for over a year. Have had to take her on occasion to the hospital mostly by referral appointment. Staff are instantly very focussed on me as the parent. Give me lots of questions to answer, make me feel that I am wasting their time. Try to make me feel how superior they are with long speeches or correcting me when I am trying to explain what I have noticed with my child. Try to pass me to other departments. Disinterested, salty almost insolent. The last visit appointment my daughter wasn’t even glanced at, not spoken to, and not medically examined. No helpful advice or progress. Simply collecting their pay checks and I am left wondering what for? Told I will have to wait for a different department that has had the referral for months and hasn’t contacted us. Does my child not deserve some kind of response! I am not waiting for a different department, a nine year child is waiting for a different department. A child that is completely invisible to Scarborough hospital. My child has faith that I will help her. I have hope. But no faith in Scarborough hospital at all."
