"Mental health care - I cannot thank the Doctors and Nurses enough"

About: Murray Royal Hospital / Electro Convulsive Therapy Service (ECT) Murray Royal Hospital / Functional assessment Ward (Leven Ward)

(as the patient),

I was diagnosed with psychotic depression in 2023 and received outstanding care and attention within this ward including 8 treatments with ECT which was a positive treatment for my particular illness. I cannot thank the Doctors and Nurses enough for their care and attention and pulling me back from being a very sick patient to a very happy individual. Although I cannot remember the ECT treatment as it happened, I do remember the tea and toast I received after every treatment. Many thanks to all the Staff for my care.

Thank you very much for taking the time to share your experience with us. I am so glad we were able to play a part in your recovery. ECT can be a life saver and when treatment is such a success in a relatively short space of time, it gives the whole ECT Team a huge sense of achievement and reinforces, our already strong belief, that what we do makes a difference.

Wishing you all the very best for the future.
