"Husband who experiences a heart condition was taken speedily to A&E by ambulance after waiting only 15 minutes"

About: Geraldton Hospital / Emergency Department St John Ambulance WA

(as a carer),

1. The ambulance paramedic David and volunteer Ash were so good.

2. The Geraldton A & E staff were thorough and friendly taking details from my husband. My husband had to stay in SSU overnight and Kerry, Zoe and Kristyn were professional and thorough with his care. Thank you.

3 When I arrived I was guided expertly by Quinn to do a RAT test which was negative. Thank you.

5. The reception staff were also very good. Thank you.

4. Later that day my husband was transferred to St John of Gods to await RFDS. Again great handover and St John ambulance staff attending.

5. I will also be contacting St John ambulance to thank you them.

Dear violetkz58,

Thank you very much for sharing your story on Care Opinion. I do hope your husband has had the treatment he requires and is now recovering.

It was great to read how so many staff at the hospital worked so professionally and thoroughly, from the time he arrived until he left our care. I will make sure the staff mentioned are acknowledged for their dedication and support to our community.

I was also pleased to hear how well the paramedics and St John of God supported both your husband and ourselves in achieving a seamless journey of care for your husband.

Thank you once again for sharing your story.

Kind regards,

Derek Fraser

Operations Manager
