"A caring attitude and expertise."

About: Royal Cornwall Hospital (Treliske) / Cardiology Royal Cornwall Hospital (Treliske) / Emergency Department South Western Ambulance Service NHS Foundation Trust / Emergency ambulance

(as the patient),

I was on holiday and had reason to call the ambulance who took me straight to the hospital. 

From the moment at which the ambulance arrived and I was sent home after 4 nights I could not praise and thank all the staff whom I came into contact with enough.

Everyone one of them were brilliant with the right kind of caring attitude and expertise.

So a huge thank you to all the staff who cared for me.

Good afternoon Toxopholite

Thank you so much for providing us with feedback on the service you received, it is much appreciated! We are so glad to hear that you were well looked after by the ambulance crew, though I am sorry that you had to experience this at all.

Thank you again for taking the time to feedback and we hope you are recovering well.

Kindest regards,
