Quality of life has improved due to their help

"Quality of life has improved due to their help"

About: Fife Community Services / Community Treatment and Care (CTAC)

(as a service user),

I was getting ongoing care from the CTAC nurses (Caron and Vikki) at Bellyeoman surgery over the past year and was recently signed off from their care as my leg ulcers were fully healed.  The care I received from them was excellent and I wouldnt now be healed like I am if it wasnt for their treatment. 

Alongside the ulcers they were treating me for my lymphoedema which I was diagnosed with last year. Again because of their excellent care and advice my legs are now being managed carefully and are under control. They are unrecognisable from the pictures taken last year.  I am much happier with them now and my quality of life has improved due to their help and treatment.
