My daughter having her first seizure

Posted By learningyx44

"My daughter having her first seizure"

About: Paediatrics / Acorn Ward

(as a parent/guardian),

The staff from the moment i stepped in reception were so welcoming giving so much reassurance. I am forever grateful for the support and care i received from the A&E department and pediatric department. It was stressful enough being so far away from home as we were on holiday but the staff were outstanding and i seriously wouldn't of wanted my daughter treated anywhere else. Thank you all

Dear learningyx44,

Thank you for taking the precious time to share your comments about your experience here with us on the Children's unit in such worrying circumstances. It can be so stressful when your child is unwell, let alone when you are so far away from home too.

I am glad that our colleagues on Acorn ward made this just slightly easier for you with their care, reassurance and welcome. I shall absolutely share this with our reception and A&E colleagues as well as the paediatric nurses and doctors that cared for your daughter that day including Dr Holly, who I know you met during your time with us on Acorn Ward. I do hope that your daughter has recovered and that she continues to stay in good health.
