I have had a very good experience here so far. The hospital is easy for me to get to and the staff are very good. I would like to receive the rest of my maternity care here.

Lack of communication between staff

February 20, 2024
I visited Heartlands for a C-section and the lack of staffing meant that I was waiting a long time for pain medication and dressing. There seemed to be a lack of communication between staff which led to a lot of confusion.

Sent home because there were no beds

February 19, 2024
My experience was awful. I had an 18 hour wait to be told that they did want to keep me in but were sending me home because there were no beds.

Lack of personable care

February 19, 2024
I spent four days as a patient at Heartlands hospital. The care I received was good but compared with the care at other UHB hospitals I do think that my experience could have been better. They lack the personable care that I have received elsewhere. This could be because the hospital felt much busier and maybe the staff just did not have the time to provide that service.

Very good service with friendly staff

I have attended several appointments in the antenatal clinic during this pregnancy. My experience has been very good, on occasions when I have arrived early I have been seen early which was great. The doctors and midwives have all been very friendly.
