"My daughter was referred to hospital by GP"

About: Paediatrics / Acorn Ward

(as a parent/guardian),

After an anxious visit to see the GP with my poorly child we were referred straight to Musgrove Park Hospital Acorn Ward. The staff were lovely to us and put me and my little girl at ease straight away. They assessed her as soon as we arrived, provided pain killers and drinks and kept a close eye on her until the doctor diagnosed her. It was calm, clean and friendly. I am very grateful for their care.

Dear gemh,

Thank you for taking the time to write about your experience on Acorn ward, Children's Unit with us today. I do hope that your little girl is much better now- it can be such a worrying time when your children are unwell.

I am so delighted to hear that our team were able to put you and your little girl at ease and that her care was prompt and kind. We continue to work hard to ensure that our Children's Unit is as friendly, safe and calm as it can be. I shall share your kind comments about our unit's cleanliness with our amazing cleaning team, as well as your experience about the care that you received with our Acorn team that are working today. Thank you.
