"My first admission"

About: Dumfries & Galloway Royal Infirmary

(as the patient),

I have nothing but praise for every member of the hospital staff in Dumfries hospital. As it was my first time ever being admitted I was very worried how it would be. All the staff were very friendly and caring. No issue was too big. I was in a lovely private room with my own bathroom. The food was absolutely amazing, I've no idea why anyone would complain about it. Every nursing staff I met spent time with me and almost felt like friends. It made my stay much more pleasant whilst feeling so ill. I wish I could remember everybody's names, but thank you to everyone in B3 that looked after me till I was discharged. Even the cleaners were a joy to chat to. I now have no fears if I ever have to be readmitted.

Thanks so much
