My husband was in Forth Valley Hospital [W11] for two weeks where he received outstanding compassionate care which was continued when he returned home under the auspices of The Hospital at Home Service.
We had never heard of this service but what a difference it has made to our lives. This is a service where care in the community is genuine and exemplary.
In both settings the staff, we had contact with, were thoughtful, tactful and encouraging. The respectful manner with which staff coped with the challenging behaviour of some patients was reassuring and an example of best practice.
This is the NHS at it's best.
"Outstanding care in the hospital and at home"
