My partner has recently had a stroke and requires assistance with almost everything; mobility, elimination, washing and dressing, eating and drinking.
I have noticed over the period of time that my partner has been in this very demanding ward, that staff have been scarse and that there seams to be a shortage of staff. Although to my surprise, the exhaustion and stresses from the lack of hands does not limit the care that the nursing and auxilliary staff show. However tired the staff are always helpfull and willing to assist with a smile.
I just want to share my thanks to the staff for not becoming downhearted/ deflated and for always being friendly, supportive and caring to my partner and his family and friends.
