I have suffered from Hemochromatosis for about 15 years and have been a regular patient at Forth Valley Hospital at Larbert. The nurses have been outstanding in Day Medicine but I have often had to wait for up to an hour for my turn because of the amount of patients and lack of staff. The parking at the hospital is not "fit for purpose" and there are never enough spaces especially at the peak times.
Cath and her team have changed everything around and I could not be more impressed. I was instructed to park at a special car park which had plenty of spaces and I walked through an automatic door directly into the Day Medicine area. I was shown to an area to wait and 1 minute later I was asked to go in and 30 minutes later I was leaving the hospital. I have to go once a quarter and it is always a day I dreaded as I never knew if I would be able to park and how long the procedure would take.
Well done all of you in Day Medicine for a really massive improvement. I cannot tell you much I appreciate what you have managed to achieve.
