"Excellent care"

About: Geraldton Hospital / General Ward

(as the patient),

I think often we're very quick to whinge about the shortfalls of hospitals and the like, but rarely do we acknowledge the excellent care that they (in most cases) provide.

I was recently admitted to geraldton regional hospital under the surgical team for suspected acute cholecystitis after a number of days of horrible pain and vomiting resulting in me being unable to get out bed for days. 

The care I received at Geraldton hospital was exceptional! At every opportunity the medical, nursing, and other staff were all very polite and lovely and attentive to my needs! From the ED to my few days in C wing, I was looked after in the best way possible. They were prompt in providing pain relief and nausea relief when I needed it and nothing was too much for them! I cannot thank them enough! 

A special thank you to  Dr Zaw and ED coordinator Jordana, and all the ED staff involved in my care. Thankyou to the Nurses Krystal, Josie, Hayley, Kiara, among others, your work was much appreciated and made my time in ED much easier.

I greatly appreciate the efforts of everyone you’ve named and acknowledge their excellent care of you. I’m sure there were a great many others who played their part and I thank them all too.
