"I had anEpileptic Fit, which I have had for..."

About: Ilkeston Community Hospital

I had had a fit at Nottingham following work - and damaged my head - bleeding a little?

Felt I needed to have it checked for no further damage.

Chose Ilkeston as it is closest hospital.

The receptionist was very polite and clear in questioning me and informing me what will happen.

I did not have to wait for too long.

Seen by a very pleasant nurse - sorry I do not have their name - I am sure the records will assist here.

The nurse made me feel at ease and explained what they will need to do including blood pressure, and cleaning my head.

The nurse informed me that I will need to go to a main hospital - the Royal was chosen - made a good typed out review , which was given to me to take to Royal Derby.

Was a very pleasant person who kept me informed what they felt was required.
