"Extra step"

About: Nightingale Hospital Exeter

(as a service user),

I was at the Nightingale Hospital for a CT scan and when I was ready to go one of the radiographers told she had noticed I was booked in for Xrays at Exmouth Hospital for a totally different problem. She contacted the Xray team at the Nightingale who were able to fit me in, an offer I was very pleased to accept. 

This utilised a space which otherwise might not have been used and freed up a slot at Exmouth. An excellent initiative which cost nothing made better use of the facilities and staff time and was a great saving of my time. 

As an aside all the staff in CT and Xray were a pleasure to deal with,

Thank you all.
