Admission to A&E via ambulance

Story from nhs.uk

"Admission to A&E via ambulance"

About: Heartlands Hospital

I was taken to A&E by ambulance from work last week following violent room spinning, inability to remain upright at all and vomiting.

The care at A&E was second to none. Every member of staff was patient, caring, thorough and very very pleasant.

The doctor who spoke to me was exceptional and so thorough, understanding and helpful. They ensured that all that could be done was done at the time to be sure I was safe to go home. They advised me very soundly on what to do. They called the next day to check how I was and reiterate advice and put further tests into action. The nurse who took me out to the car was also very good with advice for the future, with similar advice - just to say I have followed up your suggestions.

A&E at Heartlands is very busy. Everyone was calm and so thorough. I cannot thank you all enough. You do an amazing job.
