Great stroke care at Musgrove Park

"Great stroke care at Musgrove Park"

About: Musgrove Park Hospital / Occupational Therapy Musgrove Park Hospital / Physiotherapy

(as a relative),

Thanks to all the staff on Triscombe and Dunkery ward for the excellent care you provided to my Dad following his stroke. Nothing was too much trouble and everyone was friendly and caring as well as professional. This goes for the nursing staff, healthcare assistants, occupational health and physiotherapists - you were all excellent. My Mum was reassured when you took the time to explain about my Dad's stroke and the care and treatment he would need. Occupational health went to the trouble of ordering him a specially measured wheelchair when he was having difficulty sitting. He even attended pet therapy session which brightened his day. Dad has now moved to a stroke rehabilitation unit and I can only hope the care he receives there is up to the same standard as you provided. Thanks again and keep up the good work!
