Review of Bereavement written by a patient
25th May 2018


I saw Kim for counselling. She made me feel at ease, was kind and sympathetic but not in an overbearing way. I could talk to her about anything. I don't really think there's anything that could be improved.

I normally prefer to listen rather than speak (although this may not have been apparent during the 1 by 1 sessions). I felt that I was more able to be a listening ear rather than a recipient of comfort and this just happened to suit my then current need.

Please forgive me for completing the opposite page which I think I have done in error. Your hospice was recommended by the patient whose mother received care for three (3) years some years ago. I have been very happy to see Emma as a fairly frequent basis. She has shown me care and the attention I need for someone outside my immediate family my recent medical suggested that my cancer is spreading quickly to have to prepare for an earlier death.

Review of Bereavement written by a patient
18th May 2018


The care that I received from David was fantastic! He always treated me with the utmost kindness. The sessions gave me the space to talk about how I feeling and to talk through ways of dealing with bereavement. I gained a much better understanding of bereavement throughout the session and was able to explore my feelings in a safe and comfortable environment. I would certainly recommend this service. I don't think the initial triage call could be improved. It felt very much like a tick box exercise. A little more care and compassion would have been appreciated that time.

The care and consideration I received were very good. My tablets were adjusted accordingly to suit my needs. I have no complaints about any part of my treatment. I was given good information about all aspects of my dealings with St Helena Hospice.
