"Emergency Responder"

About: Scottish Ambulance Service / Emergency Ambulance

(as a relative),

My mum has recently experienced a TIA whilst covid positive, since then she has been left with a collection of symptoms that appear without warning that cause her to suddenly become unwell. On 2 further occasions since her first TIA we have had to call for an ambulance, on the early hours of friday morning Richard a lone emergency responder attended a Fife call. I just wanted to say he was excellent, clear, kind, calm, understanding, honest and reassuring, we could not have asked for a more thorough assessment, he was excellent. Credit where credits due, Richard you were brilliant, I hope we don’t need to see you again but if we do, we’ll know we’re in safe hands.

Dear Cheetahze43

Thank you so much for getting in touch with your Feedback. I am so sorry to read your mum has had to make use of our services as well as those of the wider NHS, I can understand how worrying this must have been for you all, especially your poor mum. What an awful time she has been through.

If you would like me to pass on your kind words to Richard, I can certainly arrange that for you. I'm sure he will be delighted to read your superb feedback for him, his manager too. What I would need is for you to contact our team at sas.feedback@nhs.scot with your mum's name, address and date of when we attended, and I will certainly pass that on.

Thank you once again and best wishes to you and your mum.

Lesley
