"They make you feel that they really care about you"

About: Queen Margaret Hospital / Clinical Intervention Unit

(as a service user),

All the staff at the CIU are fantastic - they make you feel that they really care about you, both as a person and as a patient. When you are stuck in a chair having an infusion, having friendly, cheerful people making sure that you are OK is really important - not to mention the tea, coffee and biscuits :-)
