"An exceptional team of individuals"

About: Inverurie Hospital

(as a relative),

My late wife was admitted for palliative care at the beginning of February. with a matter of hours, it became evident that she was going to be cared for by an exceptional team of individuals. She felt safe and secure, kept pain free and had constant company. knowing many of the staff from schooldays and other circles, it wasn't unusual to find her laughing and joking over old times, with cleaners, porters and the nursing staff. Right up to her final hours, the level of loving care and attention was second to none. I have nothing but admiration for this team.

Dear Belnacraig,

Please accept my sincere condolences on the loss of your wife and thank you for sharing your story at what must be a sad time for you.

The staff at Inverurie Hospital will be gladdened to hear that they helped make your wife's last days more comfortable in every way. Having people around to share stories and laugh with us can make such a difference to how we feel - and seeing your wife cared for by such a loving and attentive team will hopefully have made things easier for you too.

I will make sure that your kind words are passed to the team at Inverurie Hospital today.

Take care,

Kirsten
