Star Award: Danielle Crampton 🌟 Danielle went above and beyond for a patient with no fixed abode who was upset about his lack of clean clothes. He felt his dirty clothes were bothering other patients, which worried him. The next night, Danielle brought him fresh, clean clothes, which made him incredibly happy. He immediately showered and changed into them, expressing immense gratitude for her kindness. Danielle’s thoughtful gesture not only improved his comfort but also boosted his self-esteem. Thank you, Danielle, for consistently going the extra mile and providing such compassionate care for our patients.

Scarborough Hospital’s new Urgent and Emergency Care Centre opens next soon! In the run-up to the big day, we'll be introducing some of the people you might meet if you pay us a visit 🏥 Chloe Mason is a Senior Sister who will be working in the UECC. Chloe has been preparing her 50 plus staff for the transfer process from the former emergency department into the impressive £47 million facility. Her clinical team, made up of nurses and healthcare workers, are “looking forward and are tremendously excited” to work in the award-winning build. The new UECC will see 10 new staff start in her unit, with several new registered nurses beginning their NHS careers in the new build. “It’s a big change, it’s a huge building, so we are all getting used to the layout. It’s like a new house move, there’s lots to think of. As the opening gets closer, I am working hard to ensure patients are moved over safely, along with medication and equipment. All the staff are looking forward to treating patients and welcoming the community.” #ScarboroughUECC

Yesterday our Special Care Baby Unit (SCBU) celebrated all the babies born early at our hospitals over the past year 💜 It is such an honour to care for these little lives and so lovely to see them at home, thriving and getting so big! Around 53,000 babies are born prematurely each year in the UK - that's 1 in 22 births. Premature birth can have a huge health impact on both baby and parents, and our SCBU does a wonderful job of caring for both, all year round. #WorldPrematurityDay

"I needed to use Malton's Urgent Care Centre as I had an accident whilst visiting the area. From entering the unit to leaving, I was treated with courtesy and respect, firstly by the friendly receptionist and later by the very kind and reassuring doctor who tended to my injury. "Whilst waiting to be seen, I was also impressed by the receptionist on the outpatients desk, I heard her dealing with people on the phone, and also in person , who needed redirecting to other departments. Nothing was too much trouble. "My whole experience took less than an hour, from 10am to 11am approx. (I’m sure it might be longer in busy periods.) My injury is starting to heal, I am confident that all will be well thanks to the prompt and professional actions of the unit. "I am grateful to this unit and would like to thank everyone concerned."

Every day at work is a blessing for me especially because I am confident of the impact I make and the smile I put on the faces of both patients and my colleagues. No two days are the same but my passion for the job keeps me going and at the end of the day my gratitude is 100%. 🤩 Do you have a role model within the Trust, and why? I have been blessed to have a phenomenal team in the emergency department and everyone from the Matron to the healthcare assistants have been supportive.
