"My admission to the cancer centre"

About: Belfast City Hospital / Oncology

(as the patient),

I recently had to spend some time in hospital (cancer centre at belfast city hospital) as I had become unwell. While I was there I received the best care better than I could have asked for! All the staff were helpful and attentive but particular mention to the physiotherapist called Mary who was involved with my care who was is great at her job. A massive thank you to her for the kindness and care she showed me throughout my admission, we worked together to overcome any problems and now I am fully independent and no longer need oxygen which was my main goal. She also provided me with some exercises for me to keep doing at home to keep me fit and active. Also the occupational therapist however I cannot remember her name , so sorry but she was also very good at what she does, I got equipment for when I went home which will make my life a lot easier 

I also would like to say thank you to all the nurses and other staff for all their help and care throughout my stay. I will hopefully not be back in hospital for a long time but at least I know that if I ever do end up in again I will be well looked after 

Thank you everyone!
