Staff's supportive nature

Posted By songthrushss66

"Staff's supportive nature"

About: Fiona Stanley Hospital / Cardiology, CCU and Ward 4D

(as the patient),

Recently I was booked in to have a double bypass. I was scared out of my mind but the staff in day surgery made me feel somewhat comfortable whilst in their care.

Then I was wheeled away to theatre. I was awake when they started putting all the cannulas things in my arm. They put a mask over my face & asked me to take deep breathes. Then I awoke in ICU briefly that I recall.

From there I was wheeled up to Ward 4C & all the amazing nurses went above & beyond to make sure I was comfortable, pain-free & stress-free. Without the staff's supportive nature I don't think I would have battled through as well as I did.

Thank you all for your amazing services.
