Review titled Friendly efficient professional
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Bastiaan Veugelers - Posted on 11 August 2023
My son's foot injury on the last day of our family holiday was diagnosed quickly as a fracture and treated with moon boot. Copy of xrays were provided to take to my local fracture clinic. NHS at it's best, makes me proud again to be able to use it for family and work in it as a consultant

Review titled My experience of service
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Simon Stinchcombe - Posted on 08 June 2023
What a fantastic department. Smoothly run, plenty of staff tasked with a specific job roll, all tests well explained to you by clearly knowledgeable staff, all questions answered. As a result of the work they have done nothing in the department there is no long waiting between different test's If only all out patients departments could take a leaf out of their book they could all run as smoothly as this department Well done to all the staff. Best hospital experience ever, and I've had a few over the years. Well done again

Review titled Faultless A & E experience
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Derek Avery - Posted on 19 June 2023
04/06/23 10.15 am Arrived A&E reception having fallen and grazed R/H arm from wrist to above elbow. Swiftly through Triage and after a wait of 10-15 min I was seen and the wounds examined. Shortly after, the areas of skin that had been scraped down in the fall were returned to their correct position and the areas dressed. Advice for re-dressing was given. All the medical staff were kind, understanding and a perfect example of what I believe an A & E service within the NHS service should be. All the medical staff who have redressed my wounds subsequently have praised the treatment given to me originally and state that the efforts of those at Furness General Hospital have assisted the healing and much reduced any permanent scarring. I am deeply grateful to them for their skills that enabled me to carry on enjoying my holiday from which I have just returned. Thank you very much.
