"Our Sister is in safe hands"

About: Sunderland Royal Hospital / General medicine

(as a relative),

My sister is currently a patient on ward E58 (Acute Stroke unit), she suffered a stroke 2 weeks ago. The staff are absolutely amazing, they go above and beyond to help her, they keep us well informed on whats happening and we can rest easy knowing she is in safe hands and being very well looked after. I can not sing their praises enough for what they have done for my sister since she was admitted. She is always in clean nighties her hair always looks nice with what seems a different hairstyle everyday. My family and I would like to thank all the staff on the   ward for every thing   they have done and continue to do for my sister. Thank you, Thank you,

Thank you from our family  🌟
