Thank you for your care and compassion

"Thank you for your care and compassion"

About: Derriford Hospital / Clinical haematology

(as a relative),

My husband was sadly diagnosed with CMML2 leukaemia , he had regular blood transfusions and platelets in Birch 3 times a week.

It’s taken me a while to write this, but I must say that all the nurses and consultants on this ward were amazing! They were so welcoming, called my husband by his first name, nothing was too much trouble, they work so hard but still have time for a chat and a joke which made a horrible time more bearable for him.

I’d like to thank everyone in Birch ward for their care and compassion during his time there. Sadly he died, but they tried everything they could to save him, and for that , even though I’ve left it late to say, I’m truly grateful, thank you everyone!

Thank you so much!

It’s so lovely to receive such positive feedback about the team, I will ensure that this is shared across the team, I know this will mean a lot to them.

We pride ourselves on providing the best patient centred care in a positive caring environment.

It’s lovely to know that it is appreciated and helps people during some of the most difficult times of their lives.
