My experience have all been with the Minor Injuries unit (broken toes, sprained ankles etc) and they've always dealt with me quickly and easily. I was last here last week with a sore foot I'd got while running. In the space of less than an hour I was seen by a nurse, x-rayed, sent back to the nurse and told what was wrong with me - because it's a way out of Leeds, you always get such quick service and treatment, and the nurses are always very competent and professional I find. It's a much less stress free occasion than the A & E of the hospitals in the centre of Leeds, so I'd always choose it over those. Splendid.

Harrogate Hospital is clean and well-run. The ER wait is usually very minimal and the staff are very informative and helpful. The nurses who did my blood work were very friendly and nice. I've never had a bad experience here. My friends who've given birth here have had nothing but good things to say about their experiences, too. Although I hope I won't have to come back here (obviously!) if I ever needed medical treatment, I'd feel secure going to Harrogate Hospital.

Another lady had been sat there for 26 hours with a suspected stroke before she was seen. All the hype about getting help quickly is no use as it does not happen. I saw Cariology nurse on October last year I am still waiting for my results. It is now the end of June. To say the hospital is nonfunctioning is an exageration. I have a terminal illness but that does not seem to matter as the Nurse said to me "Well after all you are 81" does that mean go home and die. It felt like it. They need in house training not University and then landing on a ward etc with no experience of people.

The parking is somewhat of a contentious issue as it now costs a £1 to attend and is controlled by a security firm. Spaces being limited during visiting times.

Adjacent to the hospital which is known as Ysbwty Glan Clwyd or Y.G.C. is the Ablett Ward for the Mental Health Patients.

I am really worried that this is going to turn into some sort of political rant but I guess i just…read morehave to say what I have to say. Firstly, as a retail outlet (I can't believe I'm saying that) St James', and particularly Gledhow wing, is well over priced. On entering I am reminded of an airport departure lounge and, in common with these, the retailers are aware that they are serving a captive audience and quite obviously have no problem in profiting from peoples misfortune. I'm sure that these shiny new retail units are making lots of money for someone and it's good to know that, somewhere, there are happy people. More worrying was the comment of the assistant in one of these retail units when I commented on the excessive profits. I won't repeat his words but his comment on who profits was clearly racist. As a hospital (yes they still have room for that sort of stuff) I was left feeling saddened and extremely worried. I ha ve been visiting St James' daily for the past three weeks and these are my overall impressions: I have the up-most respect for most of the individuals who provide nursing and support care but, as a qualified nurse, I worried that many staff seem under trained for the role they find themselves in and they are obviously very stressed. It is unacceptable to 'forget' a patients medication, neglect hygiene needs or protect patients from harm. Staffing levels are low and patient care suffers because of this. Recently I spent a night on the assessment ward where there were several patients in the corridor due to lack of space some of whom had been waiting 12 hours for a bed (and some of these patients were planned admissions, asked to come in because a bed was ready for them). Don't even get me started on the cost of parking........

As bad as that is, the conditions in the waiting room were far worse. There was wet vomit on the floor, dried and fresh blood on chairs and tiles, and the staff barely attempted to clean any of it. They completely ignored basic CDC/OSHA infection-control standards--no proper PPE, no hospital-grade disinfectant, no isolation of contaminated areas, and no biohazard procedures for bodily fluids (which are considered potentially infectious materials in every credible medical setting). The staff in the waiting area seemed untrained and unengaged accept to make jokes about the patients..People in obvious distress received no assistance, basic triage didn't exist, and questions were answered with confusion or incorrect information. The lack of professional etiquette, urgency, or even basic competence was shocking. A medical facility should be clean, safe, and staffed by professionals who understand patient care. This place was the opposite. It felt like a butcher shop disguised as a healthcare facility--and the patients are the meat. And honestly, a real butcher shop would have handled blood and sanitation far better. If you value your health or safety, avoid this place. What I witnessed was unsanitary, unsafe, and far below any acceptable medical standards.
