"Brought to A&E after collapsing on Seaton Beach"

About: Royal Devon & Exeter Hospital (Wonford) / Accident and emergency

I would like to thank all the staff that helped me on the 17th September when I was brought in by Ambulance.

I went for a short walk along Seaton Beach with my partner when I just collapsed, for what seemed no reason.

Even though I had eaten lunch,

I remember thinking that I was very hungry when I was in the Ambulance and the kind lady paramedic gave me her supply of biscuits. Also the A&E staff were kind enough to bring me a choice of packaged foods to eat.

I felt the staff made me feel very important and gave me dignity at a time when I was feeling very vulnerable. I am very impressed with the outstanding service and kindness given by all members of staff.

I would be grateful if someone could tell me where I could send a thank you card to the paramedics.
