Level of cleaning especially bathroom on ward was a disgrace. There seems to be a total lack of supervision. Waste bin for general waste kept close to bed and within curtained area so lack of privacy and not hygienic. Hygiene in general not good although most medical staff did use hand wash.

Friendly staff in general, you always meet one awkward person or two. I as family was looked after well by the coffee shop staff, good selection of food for a small area, well priced in comparison to shop in main foyer, double the price for everything. This needs to be reviewed big time. ATM needed badly for people and staff.

Staff were excellent and reassuring. This helped to reduce my anxiety and fear.

I had a small operation carried out in Sligo Hospital. The staff were excellent, from the girl at reception to the doctors. My nurse that day was Edel Kelly, she was brilliant from start to finish, so nice and easy to talk to. It made everything a bit easier on me.

Usually you will always meet one member of staff who isn’t very nice and I sure did. One of the midwives. We are very vulnerable after having a baby and the way she spoke and treated a few of us in the ward was very abrupt and mean. I didn’t let her away with it! I told her exactly what I would and would not do and would not be bossed and forced to do anything. The rest of the ladies in the ward were delighted I stood up to her and I reported her to someone in charge. I was there for a few days after having my baby by emergency section and suffering with high blood pressure, so to be treated like that was ridiculous. If I ever have a baby again, I do not want her near me.

My 93 year old father was admitted to resus from St. John’s Hospital. The care he received while in Resus for the day was first class treatment. He was treated with respect and dignity by all staff. Sadly Dad passed away early the next morning but thanks to Dr O’Sullivan and staff, he passed very peacefully.

I was so impressed with the caring way I was treated. I cannot choose any one person as everyone reached a very high standard so overall I left the hospital with a happy experience. Thanks to everyone I met. I stayed at the hospital on 29 and 30 August 2018.

Staff were lovely.

The food was awful when my mother was in Sligo General for 6 months in 2014. My friend was recently in and It's a good job she was only in for a short while after her operation because the food is still dreadful. It is unappetising, rather unhealthy, poor quality and sometimes unrecognisable! Not the best way to aid a poorly person's recovery at all. The hospital has talked about improving the food offering to patients over many, many years, but seemingly not much has been done. The food at present is an appalling waste of money and a major detriment to recovery. It really lets down the other services our great hospital offers!

Lovely, couldn't do enough for my niece.

Admitted to maternity ward at around 1.30am and we were offered a warm and friendly welcome. Very dignified and supportive reassuring approach to my daughter who was admitted and stayed for two nights until she was able to transfer to her own local hospital. The lady on reception named Evelyn who took our personal details for admin purposes worked to a very high standard and was incredibly friendly and efficient and also very helpful. Reception staff often do not get enough recognition for their important job.

I injured my foot in 2010 and every time I tried to get a diagnosis, was x-rayed and told it was probably an inflammation. I have suffered much pain and loss of work opportunities and finally had to suggest to a doctor that they should maybe try an actual diagnosis. Waited nine months for and MRI and now it seems they had me walking around on a broken foot all this time. They refused to do an MRI and kept just doing x-rays although nothing showed up. Neither my discomfort in walking nor my wish to have this injury diagnosed and treated were taken seriously. Very Dissppointing.

Incredibly friendly and efficient. The whole team is excellent but Marcus Choo is second to none. Helped me through my lymphoma diagnosis and a painful biopsy. No waiting when I have an appointment. Just world-class service.

Staff making noise all night getting take aways, the nurses are anything but friendly. They need to put away the paper work and look after the patients.

The amount of waste food is a disgrace and the frozen alternatives are a pure waste of money. There are lots of young chefs who would love the opportunity to work in this environment. It is time to go back to basic home cooking and spend money on nursing staff wages where it is lacking.

Our doctor delivered our little girl 10 weeks ago and was absolutely amazing. I had to have an emergency section but I was never scared because this doctor was the one doing it. The care we received was excellent and all the staff we encountered took such great care of us.

I was told my son did not need any tests, that it was a viral infection and not to worry about the previously prescribed antibiotic or that his temperature was still high. Had to return 36 hrs later, bloods and X-ray proved he had atypical pneumonia.

Couldn't have been treated better. All staff I met were extremely friendly and courteous. They could not do enough for me. Thanks all.

Consultant care was very poor. I felt that they only cared about discharging a frail and vulnerable patient into an unsafe environment to free a bed !!!!! Very disappointed that an elderly patient who has worked hard and paid taxes all of their life could be so badly treated when at their most vulnerable.

Terrible

Waiting time three hours for outpatient appointment. Everyone present must have got the same appointment time. Small waiting area with not enough chairs for everyone. Patients given treatment in waiting area and their date of birth. read out. When patients were brought into treatment room doctors and nurses continued to go in and out leaving door open, resulting in no privacy.

Fabulous care and attention in the day service unit from all staff, had coffee in coffee shop on the way home what a little gift this coffee shop is for people to visit, these girls work very hard and always have a smile on their faces particularly girl with glasses on her head. Overall a great experience.

Overall, an excellent experience. All staff were very professional and friendly. They should all be very proud of themselves and their hard work is paying off.

I was sent for a scan up to the gynaecology ward for suspected early miscarriage and the person that preformed the scam was so unprofessional that I could not actually believe it. The first thing this person said was that my own GP couldn't be bothered in dealing with my problem and that's why I was sent to hospital. While doing the scan this person's phone kept ringing and they actually walked away from the table to answer her phone. Then in the middle of talking to me, they left the room. This person kept also throwing their eyes to heaven and did not seem at all interested in doing the job in a professional manner at all. This person then told me they had to go to the labour ward and also threw their eyes up to heaven about that too. I truly felt sorry for the patient in the labour ward that had to deal with this person because one thing is for sure, if I am in labour in future, I would not be letting this person near me.

I would highly rate the opthalmic services provided in this hospital.

Clerical worker didn't seem to be up to speed.

Both the medical and nursing staff on the eye ward were excellent! Very hard working, professional and holistic in all aspects of patients care. Outstanding efficient service and a credit to the hospital!

I was in Surgical North for four months for a brain injury, nurses were excellent kind and friendly. I was a nightmare patient because of brain injury but the staff in Surgical North were brilliant and so patient with me. Thanks for the excellent care.

Place closes down completely at the weekend, should be closed for good, a complete shambles.

A complete disgraceful effort at dealing with elderly stroke patients. Total self-healing, no interventions to assist whatsoever. Beds manual and archaic. A shocking ordeal.
