To start with a lot of staff were rude and unhelpful, cleanliness was none existent I was given water that tasted of bleach, the cupboard/locker at the side of my bed had someones blood splattered all up it and the bathroom was thick in mold. The staff were all too distracted with chatting about there night out/the weather than to give me my pain killers on time. Pain killers I was prescribed every two hours, I was left regularly between 6 and 7 hours at a time without any medication because no one could be bothered to get me any. Due to the staffs neglect and incompetence I was in there 14 weeks and then came out with more medical problems, including a blood clot and nurovirus. The final straw was the completed neglect of the staff they managed to put an anal suppository in the wrong place, and then had the audacity to say I must have put it there myself! The hospital has fallen apart, overpaid lazy specialists and nurses who cant be bothered to do the job they are paid to do. Utterly disgusting and I am in talks with a solicitor to take legal action against them - Do not use Rotherham hospital, go the extra distance and get to Sheffield.
