Heart failure and fitting of internal defibrillator

Posted By FredJ

"Heart failure and fitting of internal defibrillator"

About: Cardiology / Coronary Care Unit Cardiology / Heart Failure Nurses Ninewells Hospital / Accident & Emergency Ninewells Hospital / Cardiology Ninewells Hospital / Clinical Investigation Unit

(as a service user),

Was admitted to Clinical Investigation Unit recently for the fitting of a internal dfib unit. Michelle, Phloem and the ward staff were exemplary. After surgery and the porter and tray staff were first class. Lastly the doctors and operating staff in theatre were exemplary also.

Cannot praise Ninewells enough for all my care and treatment from admission as an emergency in March to CCU, Outpatient appointments,  clinics and the level of care I have received throughout.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart
