Excellent care and rehabilitation after heart attack

"Excellent care and rehabilitation after heart attack"

About: University Hospital Hairmyres / Cardiology

(as the patient),

Excellent level of care following my heart attack last August. All the ward staff were professional and friendly, doctors, nurses and non-medical staff.

The 8-week cardiac rehabilitation service was run under strict medical supervision by Faye and Donough and I loved attending the sessions. The extra education sessions each Thursday were really useful as they covered topics like medication, diet, relaxation techniques, etc.

Dear happystilltobehere

Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience. I am delighted to hear that you received wonderful care following your heart attack.

The cardiac rehabilitation programme is often positively received and I am pleased that you enjoyed attending the sessions and found them useful. I will ensure your comments are shared with the team especially Faye and Donough.


I hope you are continuing to make a good recovery.

Kind regards
