"Provided excellent care throughout"

About: Craigavon Area Hospital / Blossom Ward (Paediatrics) Craigavon Area Hospital / Theatres

(as a parent/guardian),

My daughter had her tonsils out in Craigavon this week and i would like to express thanks to the theatre and recovery teams and care received in blossom ward CAH. The staff were professional, friendly and compassionate and provided excellent care.

The theatre team made everything; all the lights, noises and wires seem not so scary for a little person and the recovery nurses were excellent at ensuring she was reassured and not scared coming out of her anaesthetic. Siobhan our paeds nurse and student nurse Aoife made the ward visit feel very homely and tended to our every need. Thank you to you all!
