"The care for my 19 month old son"

About: Barnsley Hospital

We called for an ambulance on Saturday lunch time as my son who was playing with my older son began making a choking sound, the ambulance came very quick and the paramedics were fantastic with my son aswell as keeping us calm, they mentioned the noise he was making sounded like croup. Once in the emergency room a nurse agreed on the croup noise and he was given some steroids. The nurses and doctors in the emergency room were fantastic with my son, extremely friendly. Once on Ward 37 the nurses were very informative, friendly and reassuring, both my children loved them, to the point my 3 year old wanted to stop over night too and was very disappointed when told he couldn't, but the nurse won him around by giving him a sticker. My little boy loved the play area, and all the attention he was getting ?? Thankfully he was allowed home the following day with the reassurance that if his breathing became difficult again Within 24 hours I could ring a number and take him back , couldnt have asked for any more from all of the staff from the paramedics, the emergency room staff and all staff on ward 37...Thank you very much!
