"I received the very best care from all members of staff"

I was admitted via A&E after getting pancreatitis from a gallstone which had moved and caused an obstruction in my bile duct. I don’t think I have ever felt so unwell or frighted in my entire life. I was in from Sunday- Saturday and every single day I received the very best care from all members of staff from my team of doctors, the nurses, HCA’s and domestics. I must also mention the food was delicious even though I couldn’t eat much! Everyone was just absolutely fantastic. The nurses were of course absolutely incredible. Special shout out to both Lyndsey who held my hand when I was at my lowest and Lewis who put up with my post anaesthetic blethering! They were both so kind and caring when I felt at my most vulnerable. 

I am a nurse myself and I know how much pressure all the staff are under and how difficult things are at the moment but you would never know that from the staff that took care of me. They were all so kind, caring, professional and attentive. We even managed a few laughs! I really can’t thank everyone enough in both wards 207 and 208. They are all incredible.
