"Medical day bed unit"

About: University Hospital Wishaw / Medical Oncology

(as a friend),

I attended the medical day unit with my friend who was receiving chemotherapy. The staff were very kind, caring and compassionate. Nothing was too much bother for them. It was a lovely bright area. The therapist was kind enough to show me her therapy room. It is excellent.

Going through this kind of treatment is difficult but the staff of the medical day unit make it so much easier for the patients and their friends and family.

Thank you x

There has recently been a lot of work carried out within the medical day unit environment and its great to hear that you found it pleasant. I will share your comments with the full team.
