My son has frequent problems with his chest and has at times been hospitalised. Today we went to get checked as his chest was bad and we're hoping to avoid an admission. I was impressed with the nurse practitioner who'd looked at his notes and made herself familiar with his pattern of illness. It made me feel reassured that she knew how to address him and his particular condition. She was quick to offer a treatment plan and referred to the fact that after his previous illnesses that I knew how to manage it. Sometimes it's easy to lose confidence when you get mixed advice - this was the opposite - I came away knowing we'll be ok at home this time and trusting the care we'd got.
