My mother called for an ambulance as my father collapsed on his way to bed.
Ambulance came within minutes and gave my father CPR.
They got a pulse back.
My father had died but the wonderful paramedic lady got him back.
Dad was then taken to Russell’s Hall resuscitation.
The fabulous paramedic was just so lovely and made us feel in reliable hands.
The staff in resuscitation were second to none.
Dad was moved to post coronary ward and stayed there 6 nights.
The ward staff were lovely.
Big shout out to the Staff Nurse who was very helpful in us understanding what had happened.
Dad had a defibrillator fitted by a member of staff who Dad also said was a gent and reassured him massively.
A big shout out to Russell’s Hall Cardio Staff.
Without all the help I dread to think how we would be feeling.
