"Staff always cared with a smile and a wee chat"

About: Queen Elizabeth University Hospital Glasgow / Blood vessel problems ( Vascular Ward 11a &11d)

(as a relative),

I would like to express my thanks and gratitude to Senior Charge Nurse Adele and her wonderful staff in Ward 11A who recently looked after my dad for his vascular surgery. 

My dad was a patient of Mr Hussey and his surgical team who have done a fantastic job looking after him, carrying out investigations and then swiftly listing him for surgery. On the day of his surgery he was looked after pre -op by the wonderful staff in the recovery area and post-op by recovery Staff Nurse Aimee and a student nurse who both were so caring and made sure he was comfortable. On returning to the ward he was closely monitored  and I could not praise the hard working staff enough for their care and dedication to his recovery. The ward is a very busy, acute area but the staff always cared with a smile and a wee chat and nothing was ever too much trouble.

Thank you all for ensuring my dad had such a positive experience - he is at home and doing very well.

Dear JillsyP73

Thank you so much for taking the time to share this lovely feedback re Adele, Mr Husey and the 11A team.

Positive feedback for any team reiterates the importance and exceptional value of the job they do.

I will be sure to pass this on to Adele and Mr Hussey and ask that they share this with rest of the staff.

I am really pleased to hear that your dad is home and doing well.

Best wishes,

Debbie Macintyre
