Infant with FPIES and FTT

"Infant with FPIES and FTT"

About: Armadale Hospital / Emergency Department Rockingham General Hospital / Paediatrics

(as a parent/guardian),

First admitted at Armadale hospital with my baby having a FPIES attack. Hospital staff acted quickly and diagnosed it as FPIES fairly early on. They admitted her on the basis of FPIES, reflux and Failure to Thrive (FTT) based on her small size. We later were transferred to Rockingham hospital to be closer to home. The paediatricians were wonderful and caring and helped us work out a way to get my baby to gain sufficient weight and get home. The head consultant also came down and gave his opinion and his help.

Dear Shadow88,

Thank you so much for taking the time to share your health care experience on Care Opinion. It was wonderful to read about the professional and timely treatment that your daughter received during what I can only imagine as being an incredibly stressful and distressing time for you all as a family.

We are incredibly fortunate at Armadale Kalamunda Group (AKG) to have such a skilled and compassionate team within our Emergency Department (ED) and Paediatric Ward. It will give me great pleasure to share your wonderful feedback with the staff involved.

Our aim at AKG is to constantly strive to deliver high-quality person-centred care to our community and receiving correspondence such as yours is so valuable.

I hope that your daughter is now recovering well.

Kind regards,

Di Barr
