There are treats for the patients and for visiting children, and there is a kitchen stocked with coffee and tea. There are even free-to-use laundry machines perfect for the tired and drained people with relatives in palliative are. So, yes: my father-in-law is on the palliative care wing and the staff there have been, almost without exception, incredibly kind and attentive. I realized that's part of what one should get in a hospice-type situation, but I appreciated that the staff at St. Peter's takes this to heart. My father-in-law's final days are clearly in good hands, and I am grateful for the facility.

It's not easy to award stars to this hospital. The physical premises should get half-a-star,…read morebecause it's such an old, decrepit building. The staff, though, should get more than four stars, maybe four-and-a-half. I'll begin here: On Sunday evening, I accompanied my daughter, who suffered abdominal pain, to the Jo Brant emergency room. In the end, my daughter is okay, but we were there for around 4.5 hours - a wait that I blame squarely on provincial government mismanagement of our healthcare funding system. Despite the long wait, however, every staff member displayed a professional kindness, to us and to other patients all around us. It is my experience that such consideration in an E.R. setting is (sadly) not so routine. Having said that, again, Jo Brant's physical facility is really showing its age. The dingy, dated exam rooms are a real mess, with old equipment that's clearly in disrepair. Even just a can of paint and a bucket of soapy water would go a long way here - but hopefully the new redevelopment and expansion project will address those issues. One nit-picky thing I noted while sitting in the waiting room for more than four hours is that the grammar and punctuation on the signs could use some improvement. Some of these were professionally printed signs. (Maybe I need to submit my resume to the marketing department). Others were mere computer-printed notices. (If only I'd had my red pen ...) Anyway, for what it's worth, I've visited newer hospitals and larger ones, but what stood out during our visit to this hospital was the benevolent staff. During our long wait, I witnessed many small kindnesses demonstrated by Jo Brant attendants, nurses and doctors toward patients --- when people are in pain or uncomfortable, that can make such a difference. They were clearly overworked and understaffed, but every one that we met was helpful. To me, the generous attitude only made the staff seem more professional and capable. I hope nobody in our family ends up in another E.R., but if we do, I hope that at least we are tended to by the staff at Joseph Brant Hospital.

Horrible experience. If you are seeking care for an elderly loved one I would avoid the place at…read moreall costs. They write off the elderly, give them very little care or support which I assume is due to their age and discharge them in a worse state than when they were admitted. Communication between team members is non existent, the left foot never knows what the right foot is doing. Nurses were visibly bothered when you asked for care or had questions and spend more time gossiping with co workers or scrolling their phone than working with patients, physio refused to work with him as he was hard of hearing and could not follow instructions - disaster all around. It is obvious that the hospital spends millions on marketing material in an effort to convince the general public they care, this money would be better spent on the patient. Avoid at all cost.

Welp! Not a good…read morereason to come here but I'm glad it was warm and cozy-ish. My mama just started her first round of chemo and it was here. The experience of being here, visiting and sitting with her and family throughout the chemo was overwhelming, shocking, mind blowing and then some for words. I don't know how to describe it! The good: volunteers! They knit hats! Bring coffee! Set up tables. A little pick me ups in not such a pick you up spot. The shocker was also how many people and their families are here for chemo. The lobby is kind of a drive up and extremely icy and slipper getting out of the car right now in the winter. They have a garage in the back and also street parking. Street parking is great if you find it right outside. Overall, it was much better than expected for the visit. Now let's hope all those chemo work wonders for everyone fighting hard for their lives.

I did not want to take her to McMaster as we live right up the Mountain just off the link(Mud & Paramount) because there are kids/babies there with worse infections such as croup etc. and if I could keep her away from that with only an ear infection it would be safer and healthier for her. NOT very professional or health and safety oriented now are they? Health and Safety vs. 5-10mins late, I'm sure they could have made time. completely disgusted.
