"Blood tests"

About: Lincoln County Hospital / Ambulatory care

(as a service user),

I am an extremely difficult patient to bleed and have had many negative experiences over the years resulting in a needle phobia.  I attended the Medical Day Unit and my nurse Caroline was absolutely amazing, put me at ease immediately and was so reassuring. She managed to complete the procedure first time. It was painless and no bruising at all afterwards which is a first for me. Thank you so much.

Dear Msbibby

Thank you very much for taking the time to tell us of your experience on MDU when you attended.

I am very pleased that you were reassured and put at ease by Caroline the nurse who cared for you. Caroline will be delighted to hear your very positive comments.

Thank you again
