"Went out of her way to look after us"

About: University Hospital Hairmyres / Emergency Department

(as a relative),

My husband was recently in the department. I had my 5-year-old son with us. I’m 20 weeks pregnant and uncomfortable and ill myself.

One nurse in particular, at 3am, went out her way to make sure we were okay while my husband was having tests. Even made me a cup of tea.

In such a time when I know they are over worked, this lady went out of her way to look after us even though we weren't the patient. Please know we appreciate it.

Dear Ashhh34

Thank you for taking the time to provide some lovely feedback, especially when you are uncomfortable and unwell yourself.

I will indeed share your comments with the Emergency department. They will appreciate your kind words.

I hope that your husband is recovering well and that you are feeling more settled.

I wish you all the very best for the rest of your pregnancy and thank you again.

Lise
