"Extremely kind and so friendly"

About: Altnagelvin Area Hospital / Emergency department Paediatrics / Ward 5

(as a service user),

I want to thank the staff in A+E and ward 5. My son received amazing care from both these departments in the early hours of Saturday morning into Saturday evening. Both nurses and doctors were so patient with him especially Lauren in a+e. The staff in ward 5 were also extremely kind and so friendly and welcoming. Thank you to everyone involved in his care it was much appreciated.
