We would like to give thanks to the nursing and auxiliary staff of wards four and eight in Hairmyres Hospital East Kilbride for the care and dignity shown to our mother in August when she sadly passed away this morning.
We would like to give a special mention to Dr Clayton, Miriam and Jo all from ward eight also Gillian from palliative care. They were all exceptional in the care shown to our mother and us.
The same cannot be said about the elderly care team who entered our mother's room when there was no family member present. We found this strange as we were with our mother twenty four hours a day and had been there on every other occasion. They spoke about mum, and not to her, regarding a hospice care home and ward 15. They left our mum deeply upset and from that point on she closed down.
