"Fantastic in every way"

About: Dumfries & Galloway Community Services / Rapid Response Team

(as a service user),

My partner was a patient in Dumfries and Galloway Hospital for 4 months in 2016 then in Castle Douglas for 5 months after 2 massive strokes and pneumonia.

On returning home we were assigned 2 carers 4 times a day as he is completely paralysed down his left side.

I had no idea the problems I would have to deal with and to back up. The carers tried to control the situation.

Moving to June 2019, home after a near death experience in hospital. Septic shock. 2 weeks in Hospital in Critical Care.

We had the pleasure, meeting Michelle, Anna & team from Rapid Response. They were fantastic in every way. I cannot praise them enough. They have given me hope in the NHS.

Thank you girls
