After 3 months of a night time cough and 2 asthma attacks I was admitted to the SATA unit where all obs were done quickly and efficiently - bloods, chest x-ray, COVID swab, given meds. I was then promptly admitted to ACU5 and was assigned to Kirin, one of the nurses, who made me feel at ease and could not have done more for me. I was then admitted to a respiratory ward (ward 7a) in the morning and again the staff couldnt have done enough for me. Andy, the specialist asthma nurse went through a plan with me, changed my meds and arranged an outpatient referral for the local asthma clinic and also made me laugh. Discharged home today and even the nurses in the discharge lounge couldn't have been more helpful or done enough. The porters who ferried me from ward to ward, the domestics chatting away, the hca's and the phlebotomist were also lovely right down to the ambulance staff keeping everyone going in the discharge lounge with their humour. Keep up the great work guys, you are all doing an amazing job.
