Huddersfield Royal Infirmary (HRI)

From the consultant to the receptionist to the pharmacy staff - approachable, professional and efficient . Really exceeded my expectations.

staff helpful , had lots of support in past.
Medical secretaries very good

Care for my dad has been exceptional, during covid it was harder. We were transferred from Calderdale royal (and the car park there is much worse than Huddersfield) My mum was given a carer lanyard which my mum thinks is good. The care is very attentive, he'll be moving from here to a nursing home.
The only downside is the position of the end of life/palliative care ward, its not best placed within the main area of the hospital.

I come here to see the ENT department. They are well organised. I use the system online and its straight forward and has my health checks on there too.

I've been coming here for the past 16 weeks and coming to stay for 2 or 3 nights regularly since then. The service is good and everyone is very helpful and professional. Only suggestion is they could do with improving the building to make it newer if possible.

Our daughter was admitted here unexpectedly a few days ago. She came into A&E and then was admitted onto Ward 9 - Acute. She will be transferred to Halifax hospital soon. We carry a carers card and we've been allowed to visit and get free parking. They offer us tea and coffee and free meals if they have any extra available. We can come and go as needed. We can see they are short staffed, but they never stop. Sometimes we don't see the Dr as much as we like, but consultant has been very good and even when he's leaving in the evening, he'll make a special visit over to our daughter and check how she's doing. The only down side is the Dr's visits are hit and miss. But the nurses are very good and they do give us all the information if we go and ask them.

No improvements to be made! The services on ward 7 - Greenlea have been very good. I come here for results once a fortnight and it's pretty good and not much waiting time.

I've been coming to the chemotherapy ward for the past 10 years. Everything is great! I get an injection here once a month. I've only got positive things to say. I come to the chemotherapy ward and they are all very helpful and polite.

I've been coming here for the past 3 years, to Ward 3, every fortnight. I can't speak highly enough of the staff. And on hematology. No complaints whatsoever.

My mum was referred here from her GP, to floor 1. An ambulance brought her in. The nurses are polite.
