"Palliative Care treatment"

About: Fife Community Services / Community Palliative Care

(as the patient),

I am currently being looked after by the palliative care team in Fife, alongside my local GP Dr McDonald.   Since coming under their care I just can not thank them enough for the wonderful work they have done in improving my quality of life over these last few weeks. Gail, the palliative care nurse, has been so helpful and has always  done exactly what she has promised and she is an absolute credit to the palliative care service.    The communication between Gail and the GP’s seems to work really well and I have been lucky to have had some great quality days over the last month.

I just wanted to put on record how much I appreciate the support I am getting.

First of all I would like to thank you for taking the time to provide feedback to Fife Specialist Palliative Care through the Care Opinion web site.

I am pleased to read you feel your quality of life has been improved through the collaboration of services in primary care.

The palliative care team pride themselves in providing a service that fits the individual needs of the people we serve throughout Fife. I have ensured Gayle received your positive and kind words for the great job she is doing and I agree she is an 'absolute credit'. I would like to share my gratitude once more for your feedback and trust you will continue to feel supported.
