My husband seemed to be suffering from Adrenal insufficiency, though we were not aware. The staff were rushed off their feet but they didn’t act harassed or rush us. They did their very best, with kindness and a smile. We both thank you so much and want you all to know that you are valued & respected. Your work and personal sacrifice is appreciated beyond measure., Our best wishes and kindest regards Sue & Alton Johnson |

I had a plate put in my wrist to realign a fracture. Every single member of staff I met was kind, compassionate, knowledgeable and friendly. I felt safe and cared for from the moment I arrived until I left. When I was in pain they reacted swiftly and with genuine concern. They also provided me with tea and biscuits to revive me in Recovery and even made sure they had the same biscuits back on the ward! I truly appreciate the wonderful care I had. Thank you ?? |
