I was admitted to NSECH with breathing issues. From A&E to discharge I couldn't fault it. I was quickly assessed and moved to the appropriate ward. I unfortunately had to be ventilated but the staff were amazing and helped my family throughout my illness. When I was brought round I wasn't left alone and was always reassured and supported. I was moved to ward 12 for my final 2 days in a private room with my own facilities. I feel I was given privacy and was checked upon when obs and medication was given. When I was discharged I was given all the appropriate information regarding ongoing medication. I can't thank the consultant, nurses and health care assistants enough because without them it could have been a different outcome.
"Amazing critical care staff"
