You were there for my sister and I know she did benefit from the support Diane Turner gave her.

Review of Inpatient Unit written by a family member
1st March 2019


Almost immediate help when called. Felt "cared" for by the nurses. Never where always recognised and acted upon. Bed always looked tidy. Improved (?) In the room of 4 patients when the doctors come round to discuss patients diagnosis or questions. I think the visitors of other patients in that room should be asked to leave for 15 mins or whenever very personal things get discussed.

I received fantastic support at a very difficult time in my life. I wish I knew about the services available much earlier in my illness, i think I would have been able to benefit earlier. I was only referred because I asked my consultant about palliative care. Had I not asked I would have been now the wiser.

A specialist nurse (Diana Turner) was assigned to my mother. She didn't just care for her but all the family. This was important to have one person to talk to rather than a voice at singlepoint. She was able to give support when needed and helped us get through some difficult times, if she was unable to visit, was at the end of the phone, I couldn't have wished for better care than this lady gave. Improvements? Waiting to join a specific group- long wait list.

Becky was great with my dad. Was realistic with him. We used your counselling service for myself and my son and they were very good.

Meeting other people and socializing with them every week. Learning new things about different aspects of life with other people. Thoroughly enjoyed this course and would love to repeat it at some point.

A good general range of subjects relative to our needs and goals. I liked the exercise classes as not too long but got your moving. Very friendly and approachable staff, with lots of personal care and assistance available. Many subjects covered both as scheduled and as a result of these topics. Being able to speak freely or openly.
