"Mum’s palliative care"

About: Whiston Hospital

I cannot praise the staff at this hospital enough. From the A&E development to ward 4B, consultants, doctors,nurses, careers, cleaners, administrators, clergy and car park attendant’s.

My elderly mum was admitted with a very bad infection, which was inoperable. We were consulted from the beginning of her treatment and kept updated all the way through her time at the hospital. Her condition meant that she was not going to improve and was therefore handed over to the palliative care team. The care my lovely mum was given was exemplary. They treated and cared for her with respect, dignity and compassion. Mum was made comfortable and her needs were catered for throughout. After a long battle mum passed peacefully on the 17th December.

Thank you Whiston Hospital - thank you our amazing NHS .

Denise Ferry and family.
