Visited minor injuries with a painful hand to find I had fractured my hand. No nurse provided me with any details or aftercare on my injury, I was just put in a cast and told to ask the receptionist to book me in at the hand clinic. I was rushed in and out (I suppose every patient is just a number!)
What I am most appalled at is the receptionist. They booked me in for an appointment at the hand clinic for a Sunday at the northern general. When I arrived at the hand clinic (2 days after attending the hallamshire) the clinic was told and I was told by nurses that there is no clinic on a Sunday.
Complete waste of time due to staff not knowing how to do their job properly. Wouldn't recommend this hospital to anyone.
