My interview at Gartnavel Hospital is about my preliminary interview to enable me to start the Cardiac Rehabilitation Programme. The interview took 1 hour 45 minutes.
From the start I was made to feel very welcome, comfortable and able to ask any question at any time. There was a cardiac nurse and a student present. A very detailed description was made of what had been happening to me over the last 4 months - July through to October 2025. I was also able to briefly describe what had been happening since the middle of 2024 which ultimately lead to my bypass surgery in mid Aug 25. I was able to describe in detail the pros and cons of the after effects of the surgery and my gradual recovery. My physical ability was tested and closely monitored by a physiotherapist and the student so that I would be placed at the correct level of the rehab programme.
I was able to ask questions about driving and did I need to contact the DVLA and my car insurance company. That was all made clear to me.
I have to say I was extremely impressed with the Personnel who carried out the interview and with the amount of detail they went into. I felt that there was nothing that hadn’t been covered.
I look forward to starting the programme in early Nov 25.
