Chorley and South Ribble Hospital

Felt very cared for and looked after whilst I had a few nights stay on Brindle ward. The staff are friendly and pleasant despite how busy it was from time to time. I felt my emotional needs were met as a younger patient on the ward. I was able to stay in a lovely side room where I could have privacy with my young family at visiting and get sleep undisturbed by other patients. I’m sure this really helped to aid a quick recovery for me. Marie Walker, a volunteer was amazing, keeping me topped up with cups of tea and company.

One group member commented that they have to use the Specialist Dentist at Chorley & South Ribble Hospital for their severely disabled daughter, who has challenging behaviour. They said the dentist is always understanding, patient and thoughtful about how they deal with her and they wished that all professionals were this understanding and accommodating.

One group member commented about Chorley and South Ribble Hospital. They said:
“I attended Chorley A&E before it closed. I attended for Sepsis and had a six-hour
wait for blood tests in a store room. I saw nobody during that time and felt forgotten
about.”

We have to use the special needs dentist at Chorley Hospital for our severely disabled daughter who has challenging behavior. He is always understanding, patient and thoughtful about how he deals with her. I wish all professionals were this understanding and accommodating.

The Choose and Book System at Chorley and South Ribble Hospital causes inaccurate bookings and information and results in missed appointments.

I experienced a long wait for my X-ray results.

The food on this ward was awful.

The food was really good during my stay.
