Review of Therapies & Wellbeing written by a patient

Having different qualified personnel so that all needs were catered for. My confidence in my ability and mobility has been greatly enhanced. The benefit of someone listening, the education side very useful, with the addition of paperwork to take home.

Instead of feeling sad and lost all the time I now feel able to cope and fairly happy. From a very negative person I am no much more positive. I feel I can now cope with most things that come my way. As far as I am concerned nothing needed improving.

After being given the diagnosis of cancer. I felt rather confused and was greatly helped by as many friendly helpers with expertise and support. I could not have asked for anything more.

All staff caring and ready to listen to what you have to say, also ready to offer help in a practical way i.e offer an arm when walking any distance. Also may I say, I have learnt a lot by the subjects that was discussed each day. Thank you, I would be interested to learn a lot more.

What was good is the total support from all the staff I came into contact with. My councillor Allen rang me to ask how I was few weeks after my husband had died to ask what I was up too. I look back now and laugh, yes laugh, he must have thought I was a mad woman as I wanted on about husbands tax returns I told him I was fine- didn't' need counselling when it finished he said are you at home tomorrow about 10 am. I said yes he said see you the - It's been the best thing ever he calmed me down opened that hard shell of protection It's been over 4 years of caring for my husband. I'm back.

People friendly, relaxed and reliable, relatively bureaucracy, free. Too long a wait for care to begin. More info on other support could be more freely available.

A lovely lady Lillian looked after me I could not wish for better service. The 1st time I went to see her I was in a bad way. The last time with Lillian. I was back to my normal self. Lillian gave me so many ways to get me back to how I should be, and could not thank her enough. My daughter who took me each time, soon noticed I was much better, each time with having a chat with Lillian. I will always remember how her kindness will stay with me always. Thank you.
