My family has used Brockton Hospital for a few health issues in the past. Last year, we needed to bring our 14 month old son to the emergency room for a severe stomach virus, and we were seen within 15 minutes, which is excellent for an ER. The admitting staff was friendly, professional and compassionate. The nurses and doctors were all competent and we felt we were in good hands. My son was admitted to the pediatric ward, and that took a little bit more time than we would have liked, but once settled in his room, we received good care again. The nurses were so helpful in getting us settled & immediately provided portabeds for my husband and I. They were very caring to my son & tried to make him comfortable, considering how scary it can be for a small child to be there. The day nurse was wonderful. Recently, after my daughter was born, we brought her there for repeat jaundice testing in the lab, and the staff was competent and friendly. Our pediatrician is affiliated with Brockton Hospital. Overall, I think this is a good hospital.
