"Thorough and kind"

About: Northern General Hospital

Spent the day in A and E after my husband woke in the night with chest pains. The care from beginning to end was excellent: the ambulance paramedics, the receptionist, the triage nurse, the doctor and the nurses, the person who took blood samples, the orderlies who wheeled my husband around, the tea lady and finally the senior consultant. There was an atmosphere of kindness and care not just to the patients but to their loved ones as well throughout A and E. They did a thorough investigation of all possibilities and left my husband feeling reassured and confident that we could go back for more help if needed. The ambulance came in 15 minutes and we were seen after 15 minutes. This is definitely a quality service with a visibly positive ethos. We were so impressed. Thank you so much!
