"Being cared for at home by wonderful staff"

About: Older People’s Services / Hospital at Home Southern Sector

(as a relative),

I am completing this review on behalf of my 90 year old Aunt at her request.  She took ill at home.  Her situation required an immediate response.  She was examined at home and then taken to SWAH Enniskillen for Xray.  Following Xray she was delivered home by ambulance on the same day.  A 'Hospital at Home' package was provided from that moment until the conclusion of treatment.  Throughout the 'Hospital at Home' service was superb.  All of the staff - Doctors and Nurses were professional, kind and caring.  My Aunt is firmly of the view that being cared for at home by wonderful staff speeded up her recovery.

Hello,

Thank you for your very kind words and thoughts and I will pass this onto all the team.

We are just so pleased that your aunt has been able to be treated at home and that she has improved well while under Hospital at Home Care. Being treated at home in her own surroundings may have aided her speedy recovery and this is what we as a team are aiming for.

We wish your aunt and the family best wishes and hope that her improvement continues.

Many Thanks

Claire Aiken
