"Good care from the pain team"

My husband was admitted to hospital after an accident that caused him severe neuropathic pain and he was unable to walk. It was a very traumatic time for our family and there were a few issues with the care he received in the ward and with his medical and surgical team.

He received treatment from the Pain team, his pain was difficult to manage and it took a while to get on top of it however the care he received from them was excellent. They listened to him, advised him and referred him to other areas that could support him. They tried as many options as required and finally he got there. They finally done what other professionals hadn't and it was mainly that they listened and acted on what he needed. We were so grateful and it was a massive relief that people were actually hearing us.
