"Fantastic care at all times"

About: Musgrove Park Hospital / Cardiology Musgrove Park Hospital / General surgery North Devon District Hospital / Colorectal surgery & stoma care

(as the patient),

In September 2019 I went in hospital for a aneurism op and a problem with my legs on the Wednesday. A couple of days later there was a problem with my bowel and was operated on the next day. The following day they turned me over to clean me and I had a cardiac arrest and it took 20 minutes to get me going again, I spent about 3 week's in intensive care before going to a ward barrington? and  being allowed to go home which was then October.

I received fantastic care at all time's I can't thank every one enough for keeping me alive. Surgeon's, doctor's, nurses and all the staff involved in my care thank you every one of you please keep up the good work and stay safe.

I also have a stoma bag fitted witch I am under the care of North Devon Hospital barnstable, my stoma care nurses are doing a great job looking after me thank you very much
