BARNSLEY Hospital's emergency department has been rated the best in the country for the quality of its training.
Each year the General Medical Council asks second year foundation trainee doctors, to rate the quality of training in the area they are working at that particular time.
Barnsley Hospital was rated the top in the country for overall satisfaction of training.
Dr David Walker, consultant in emergency medicine at Barnsley Hospital, said: "Junior doctor training is something we take very seriously and put a lot of effort in to, all the staff in the emergency department are very proud of this achievement."
We have been at the heart of our community, every week, since 1858. The town and its people have changed dramatically since then but the Chronicle has been a constant.
It’s our belief that news should be available to everyone regardless of their circumstance. But we need a little helping hand to do so.
Production Editor, Ashley Ball, said: "In an ever changing media world, it’s important that news is reported correctly and without any hidden agenda.
Your support allows us to keep holding decision-makers to account and report on everything that happens in the town, good or bad, fairly."
