"Staff are the definition of the word care!"

About: Gartnavel General Hospital / Respiratory Medicine

(as a carer),

My granda had been transferred several times over his five month hospital stay, between the Queen Elizabeth Hospital and Gartnavel Hospital.

The care he has received in ward 6C has been truly amazing. The staff spend time with all of their patients and they actually care for them (unlike any other ward he has been in!)

Ward 6C staff are the definition of the word care! Every other ward my granda has been in has been appalling and I was so happy to see him leave this ward, which I fear may never have happened if he stayed in one of the other wards.

I genuinely think he would have deteriorated significantly if he didn’t receive the care he has in ward 6C. Every single member of staff is friendly, helpful, professional and a joy to be around! If only other wards could be like this one!
