Giving me my life back

Posted By castoryz57

"Giving me my life back"

About: Beverley Health Service / Emergency Department Northam Health Service St John of God Midland Hospital

(as the patient),

My story started at 3 o clock early morning, when I woke up and couldn't breath. I was believing me to be dying. The wife phoned the ambulance, that took me to Beverley Hospital, then straight to "St John of God", the last few days I knew nothing about, the only thing I did know is I was being well looked after, I was in "St John of God" so I knew it was the angels looking after me. I was later transferred to "Northam" hospital and after lots of early care from friendly staff, Doctors, nurses, in fact everyone I dealt with in the hospital, always smiling, and I mean everyone, I believe it is the spirit of the hospital that keep the patients and gives them the will to live, I thank the physios for helping me feel 100%. I thank "Northam Hospital" for giving me my life back. 

"God Bless".

Dear castoryz57,

Thank you so much for taking to the time to share your story.

I always enjoy reading where the positive feedback involves multiple health services - all doing exceptional work to provide high level of compassionate care to our patients.

Your very right. The spirit of the hospital is so important and for patients to see that everyone is working as a team to achieve the best outcome.

Based in Northam with oversight of Beverley Hospital, I will take great pleasure to share your story with the staff at these hospitals.

I trust you have recovered from your ordeal.

Best wishes to you.

Trenton
