"Myself"

About: Geraldton Hospital / Emergency Department

(as the patient),

At approximately 4pm a recent weekend I had the onset of severe pain in my upper chest, it was something I had never experienced before. As it didn’t disappear I called 000 at 5.50pm, at the ambulance arrived within minutes.

On arriving at Geraldton Regional Hospital I was treated by nurses & an amazing dr, several tests & X rays taken I was monitored very closely before being transferred into the short stay ward. Dr reassured me it didn’t appear to be my heart causing the severe pain but definitely required further investigation. From there several appointments were made.

My experience was scary but the Staff were amazing , so attentive even throughout the night. I am truly grateful for all the care given. The paramedics were amazing. Thank You one & all I know you do not expect accolades but should be very re assured I am extremely grateful for for your amazing care. 🙏🤗🌷

Dear warmcq74

Thank you for sharing your experience with us all on Care Opinion.

I’m sure you were very concerned when you presented to the ED with chest pains. It was great to read how well looked after you felt and that you believed the ED team and paramedics were compassionate, efficient and working together to achieve the best outcome for you.

I hope you have accessed your follow up care and are feeling better now. Thank you again for taking the time out of your recovery to share your kind words. I will ensure everyone in the ED is provided this feedback and will I add my appreciation here of all they do to look after our community.

Regards

Cameron Ross
