I wish to thank all the staff at A&E for attending so promptly to my 93 year old mother, who attended with severe burns. She was treated promptly with great care and sensitivity and went over and beyond the reason we were there by directing and advising for aftercare and general care in her home. Thanks again to the nurses who dressed and cared for the burn and Ava in OT who attended her and gave great advice.

Dr Hannon looked after me brilliantly and his team. I was so comfortable with them all, the doctors and surgeon absolutely brilliant so thank you and all those off Margaret Keogh ward. All the nurses especially Dorothy, Connor, Kim, Mary and all the nurses off that ward they where beautiful people who gave me all the support I needed. The dinner ladies were brilliant too. They make you feel great and all the attendants and the lady taken the bloods was brilliant, lovely girl and the wound cleaning lady, oh she has the place spotless. I couldn't say how clean it was. They all have a very hard job and I tell ya they are as nice in the morning as they are in the night. It made my stay much more comfortable and the blonde nurse was brilliant xxx

Tracey, Emmer, Ashley. KEITH SHAW ICU. My husband spent eight weeks in this unit and from day one these girls have been amazing, the care they gave my husband has been outstanding. I can never thank them enough for the kindness they have shown to my husband and to myself. They truly are angels and I firmly believe my husband would not have pulled through if it were not for these amazing angels.

Sister Helen Shuster. Accident and Emergency department. This lady treated my father with dignity, respect and absolute professionalism. She is a nurse who truly sees her role as one of vocation. It renews ones faith in human kindness to meet a person like Helen Shuster.

All the staff nurses, catering etc.. of the Anne Young Ward were amazing, and the laughs we had, they must have thought ward 3 were crazy. They actually care, it is not just a job to them. Thank you all for making a worrying and stressful time enjoyable, amazing dedication to their jobs x

The nurses of the Keith Shaw Ward were kind, thorough and gave excellent care to me during my 6 night stay there (Maura, Faye, Jonah, Julia, Jessie, Yan and the 3 or 4 whose names I can't remember, but did a great job too). I was looked after extremely well.
