Reviews of Battlefords Union Hospital (Hospital)

Scott Oosterom

A positive experience each time we go in. Emergency staff has been top notch the dozens of times times we ended up in there. My foster son is epileptic and has required many visits. Wait times in the ER can be painfully long at times.

Staff seem friendly and attentive overall, clean anytime I've been.

Whenever we have had to use the Hospital it has always been a pleasant experience.

Had to get a cracked rib dealt with, and although it was extremely busy, the staff - from the commisionaire, to intake staff, nurses, x-ray techs and the doctor were very friendly and professional. Thank you.

Awful the mental health facility tortured me unskilled doctors that have been brought in over seas that lack a moral compass and skills the nurses are just as bad in the depot. I won’t even tell you what they put me through you’d be so mortified. It resulted in me from being a very happy healthy individual to now being a very feeble man for my age and I used to be able to fight people three times my size. My memory has also been staunched. This is what happens when you let liberals in I guess.

Small but efficient hospital. Everyone is helpful and friendly.

I worked there a few years back - I know the staff are professional and care in what they do. Big ups to all ICU & ER staff!

My Uncle who is 83 had a severe allergic reaction complicated by a heart condition. Thank you to Diane in admitting and Dr Viviers and Dr Beaton who were professional and calm and wonderfully quick at providing treatment. You guys are wonderful and I will never forget how genuine and caring you were. Thank you from my heart.

My experience with this hospital has been absolutely awful. I had an accident and had to be rushed to the hospital. We arrived there and after waiting for the ladies to finally look up and notice us after quite a few minutes we finally got in and answered the Covid-19 questions and went to sit back down. We waited 4 hours until we finally got into our room and then waited half an hour until the doctor showed up to give me my 4 stitches. Before he started we found out that he was in training and there was a lady doctor standing over him telling him what to do at pretty much every second. After an hour of that pain we finally got out and by the way: No they did not give me any medications and no they did not give me any cream for the stitches and pain. 3 days later i started feeling pain and took the bandage off and we knew something was wrong and so we headed back to the hospital. We got in, answered the questions and waited 3 hours before just leaving. There was a lady that was there since 9am and she just left when we did which was 9pm. The next morning i went to my family doctor and he told me it was infected. Then i thought back to the guy who was doing my stitches and who was in training and it became obvious where the infection came from. My doctor got me some medications and cream and i was good after that. How is it there was only 1 doctor working at the time? Which is what we were told. And how is it you have to wait 3-4 hours to find out what’s going on with you? Which is the waiting time by the way. It’s very upsetting the lack of professionalism in this place. If they used their money to hire better physicians and doctors and nurses then spending it on renovations maybe it would be actually a better place. You’d be better off seeing a family doctor and if you don’t have one then search up what you may think is going on with you. Also you could drive all the way to Saskatoon it’ll be a whole lot faster and better. But what can you expect when you’re waiting in a room with 15 others along with having pain in your leg and the only doctor working right then and there is walking back and forth with a water bottle in his hand looking as lost as that one and only sock in my laundry. In conclusion get better physicians working on the job and do your job better and if you don’t have the brain to do that then you obviously don’t have the heart to care for your patients. Thank you.

Had my son here a and nurses and staff were all very wonderful. I was first mama to be to come in with a birth plan and they accommadated my wishes as much as they could of course if there was a safety issue then we went with what doctors needed. I had to be induced because my water broke and contractions didnt start even after 24 hours. Then it took 12 hours to have him. They helped me with Conner if I needed and even suggested I sleep as much as possible there and took care of him for me too. I had a great 3 day stay no complaints.

Never have a complaint. Always fast and thorough compared to other hospitals in the area, I've never felt like an inconvenience here.

Michelle Gaetz

As long as your trying u can do no wrong.. Psychward:Doctors have poor team skills along with most nurses individual skill questionable care aids occasionally were ok "occasionally" They don't manage holistic&medicine very well in combination. Entertainer workers "strongdecent" wasn't allowed 2 shower for 3 weeks. 9 years later made semi full recovery from a form of insanity(s)with a combination of 2 of the lowest doseage they offered for these medicines. Took 10months & then 2 weeks of ginkobiloba & unfair amount of individual effort & a holistic approach I wouldn't settle for any less then pretty much or very much top tier physical health & brain function I hated the effects I felt from medicine & I grinded 2 get off I tried my best to stay in legal confines when I shouldn't have even cause they were knowingly killing me very much the whole team. Still very much a prisoner within "the legal medical system". It's not even archaic it's just a lack of care in my opinion these r very qualified people making pathetic actions & this happens to a lot of people. I wish them healing in whatever is ever currupting their hearts not there brains cause with qualifications like that it's majorly a soul problem not a intelligence problem cause I seen there capabilities amazing people but they didn't even lift a finger of support for me... Should've moved to population zero within a 100 km apparently.

The staff on the surgical floor were very attentive to myself June 30, 2020. I could not have asked for better care.

This P N R H facility is the worst....we were instructed by the Dr in Turtleford to come right away as it was urgent, husband needed a CT scan and surgery right away. So our observation has been that they claim the test results never got here to NBUH, AND WE ARE SITTING WAITINGto make our way through emerge. BUT there were a couple of native ladies who had been here since 2:00 this afternoon, after seven hours she got called in, was put in a room and left there for over an hour and not one nurse or Dr came to check on here... Finally she left... What a waste of her time.... SHAME ON PRAIRIE NORTH!!??? SERIOUSLY if there is a hospital built on Thunderchild Reserve I will applaud them...

ICU wonderful staff. So attentive to your needs. These people are some of the best who made my transition to a ward so much better.

The hospital employees a nurse who legitimately enjoys assisting in infant circumcisions and takes joy in holding down the baby boys for it. This hospital is stuck in the dark ages with its offer of infant genital mutilation. I hardly know of a hospital left in Sask that offers infant circumcision anymore and with good reason. This hospital doesn’t educate new parents on the facts of circumcision, they just offer it and come grab the baby. Shame on the hospital and shame on the sadistic under educated nurse who enjoys infant circumcisions. Anyone with a heart can’t aid in something so cruel and torturous, let alone enjoy it. The nurses name is Haley

Great care
