Quick and compassionate care
We took our 9 month old to A&E as he had breathing difficulties, we were seen in less than 2 minutes (although the waiting room was empty) and he was assessed by a nurse and doctor straight away. Our son was assessed and classed as needing oxygen and help to open up his airways so he was given nebulisers and hooked up to an oxygen tank. Once he was stable and his oxygen levels were back up to a level that the Doctor was happy with we were taken up to the Rainbow ward. We stayed in all weekend, received great care from lots of Doctors and nurses. The staff obviously care about their patients and they were more than happy to help us whether it was fetching a sick bowl for our son, making up his milk while he was having treatment or just offering to make us a cup of tea.
