Our daughter fell ill suddenly with Type 1 diabetes which was picked up by our local pharmacist. We then presented to the Karratha Hospital and were seen to very quickly and professionally. Within hours, we were on an RFDS plane to Perth to be admitted to the Perth Children’s Hospital. We spent close to a week in the hospital, getting our daughter’s glucose levels under control and learning how to manage her diabetes. The staff we encountered (pharmacists, ambulance volunteers and paramedics, RFDS pilots and doctors and nurses, hospital doctors and nurses in both Karratha and Perth, specialists, etc) were so incredibly professional, educative and kind and we knew that we couldn’t possibly be in better hands.
