"child needing a&e"

About: Craigavon Area Hospital / Blossom (Paediatric Outpatient dept) Craigavon Area Hospital / Emergency Department

(as a parent/guardian),

My son had an operation and had a urine catheter inserted, and he had stopped passing urine through this.

I arrived at CAH, A&E children 

Promptly seen by Deputy Sister Hannah, Staff Nurse Amy and Doctor Adam.

All of who are a credit to their profession and supported my young son as he was very distressed and unsettled.

They worked well as a team and with compassion.

The issue was resolved and my son was back to his usual happy self.  

Thank you all.
