"Receiving my COVID 19 Vaccine"

About: Southern Health & Social Care Trust / COVID vaccination programme

(as a carer),

I am very grateful to the team at Craigavon Lakes Leisure Centre where I received my first Covid 19 vaccine. I was nervous and the Nurse, Carol was so calming and reassuring and so was Nurse Sharon who talked to me while Nurse Carol gave the vaccine. After I received the vaccine I didn't feel well and passed out. The care and help I received from Nurse Carol, Nurse Sharon and Nurse Dawn was exceptional. I know there were others involved but I can't remember their names- apologies. I was treated with such care, dignity and given outstanding medical care. I will always be so so grateful to them and indeed for the opportunity to get the vaccine. A 100% pay rise for every NHS worker. Thank you again.

Dear quebecqm54 - thank you so much for providing this feedback in relation to receiving your COVID 19 vaccination,. We can appreciate that some people do feel nervous and anxious when attending, it is so lovely to read that Carol and Sharon helped you to relax whilst administering the vaccination. I am sorry to read that you didn't feel well after getting the vaccination and it is also reassuring to read that how you describe your care as outstanding.

I will ensure your feedback is shared with the team, including Carol, Sharon and Dawn.

I hope you keep safe and well

Best wishes
