Emergency room staff were great!

"Emergency room staff were great!"

About: Kalgoorlie Health Campus / Emergency Department

(as the patient),

I attended Kalgoorlie Health Campus recently after suffering anaphylaxis due to a bee sting. I had already had an epi-pen prior to arriving but was struggling by the time I arrived. I was seen straight into triage, and then into Emergency Department (ED) pretty much straight away. 

A team of 4 or 5 staff attended to me immediately and gave me all the required attention and treatment. 

Throughout my relatively short time (4 or 5 hours) in the ED, the staff were magnificent. Thanks a lot guys, you are actual life savers, love your work!

Dear cygnuspt97,

Thank you for your very kind feedback. I was relieved to read that you had an epi-pen handy, that will have helped your situation immensely. The staff in Emergency train to respond quickly to critical situations and the teamwork you observed reflects that level of training. I will pass on your letter to them and let them know how well they are appreciated.

Kind regards,

David Bowdidge
