"top class care for my poorly mum"

About: The James Cook University Hospital

Anything else?

In my opinion this was the best place for my very poorly mum to go, on the 24th August my mum was admitted into James Cook after a massive heart attack and cardiac arrest, within hours my mum had a stent fitted, and spent the next few weeks in intensive care, the level of care she received was unbelieveable. The staff there treat my mum as if she was part of their family, which was a great comfort to myself and my family, we all received so much support from each and every member of staff. My mum spend 5 weeks here and I can honestly not say one bad word at all, can only praise these wonderful people and thank them for doing such a great job at nursing my dear mum.
