Our mother was admitted to ward 208 on a Monday and sadly passed away on the Thursday of the following week. Her health deteriorated on the Wednesday and she was moved to a single room for some privacy. The staff were fantastic at what was a very difficult time for us as a family.
My brother and I slept in the room for 10 nights to be with our mum and at no time were we made to feel as though we were in the way. They went beyond the call of duty and ensured that we were alright. They made us coffee and toast in the middle of the night, supplied blankets and even toothbrushes for us. Mum had the best possible care and we can't thank the staff enough. They are a credit to the ward and to the hospital.
