Stem Cell Transplant

"Stem Cell Transplant"

About: Queen Elizabeth University Hospital Glasgow / Bone Marrow Transplant Unit (Ward 4B)

(as a service user),

In March 25 I was admitted to Ward 4B for an autologous Stem Cell transplant, the final phase of my treatment for non-hodgkins lymphoma. The care I received from all the staff on the ward was exceptional. Everyone was so knowledgeable and able to anticipate my needs and manage any pain or symptoms almost immediately. Being isolated for 3 weeks was incredibly difficult but the nurses and auxillary staff were incredible, so caring and kind and they made what was a very challenging experience so much better. I would like to thank all of them for their effort, professionalism and kindness.
