"My Dads treatment"

About: Victoria Hospital / Accident & Emergency Victoria Hospital / Intensive Care Unit Victoria Hospital / Medical High Dependency

(as a relative),

My dad was admitted to Victoria Hospital Kirkcaldy Sat 8th Sep, really unwell turned out he had developed Sepsis he deteriorated really quickly and was taken from A& E to High Dependency after we left him we got a call 2 hours later asking for family to come back in he had deteriorated further. He was transferred to Intensive Care. The doctors and nurses on ICU have been amazing I cant praise them enough, the care my dad received was fantastic. Our family cant thank them enough.

Dear den2ar,

Thank you for taking the time to tell of your Dad's experience after developing Sepsis.

. Sepsis can develop from a mild illness to a life threatening one extremely quickly.I am pleased to hear that you felt your Dad's care was excellent and hope that you and your family felt supported during this stressful time.

I hope he is recovering well at home and look forward to inviting him back to the InS:PIRE ( Intensive Care Rehabilitation ) clinic in the not too distant future.

I will pass on your kind comments to all members of the ICU staff

Thank You again for taking the time to post on Care Opinion, it is very much appreciated

Kind regards

Colette
