"Well looked after"

About: Neurosciences (DCN) / Neurosurgery Victoria Hospital / Admissions Unit 1 (Emergency Medical)

(as the patient),

I had a bleed on brain and was transferred to ward 33 from Kirkcaldy Victoria hospital in June 2018. I had my operation on the Tuesday and I can honestly say I was well looked after by all staff. I can honestly say that nothing was a problem. They were all hard working and so nice

Dear Harry banana

Thank you so much for providing comments about the care you received in the Department of Clinical Neurosciences. It has been passed to the clinical team who are delighted to receive feedback such as this. You describe the standard of care that they always hope to achieve.

I note that you have highlighted that the quality of food was poor, which is disappointing. I hope you highlighted this to the staff so that they could find you alternatives.

I hope you are recovering well and thank you for taking the time to post these really positive comments.

The food was OK but sometimes could have been warmer but it was edible. After all its free why should we complain.
