Review of Virtual Ward written by

An excellent care service for my mum in her last days. The nurses always had time to answer my questions and treated mum with great care and respect.

Suggested improvements
I cannot think of anything that could have been done better.

Review of Bereavement
15th March 2021


Lucy was amazing, she gave me time to talk about my feelings and it wasn't all solely on my grief for my dad it was more of a mixture of general talk and helping me to overcome my fear and anxiety over letting myself greive properly. As I didn't give myself a chance to let myself cry.

Suggested improvements
Absolutely nothing, Lucy was wonderful.

We could not have wished for better care, also support. I really do not know if I could having carried on without the nursing staff.

Review of Breathlessness written by
20th February 2021


I had been referred to the service by a GP who I had spoken to as my surgery. I did not know what to expect out./nThe clinician was excellent, tailoring the session to my needs she is a point and contact and someone who is knowledgeable, caring, empathic and puts the patient as the centre of everything she does.

Suggested improvements
I have been suffering from breathlessness now was a symptom of my conducted for over 2 1/2 years now. It is only now that have been referred. It would be great if you could promote your wonderful service to GPs and clinicians at surgeries so they can refer appropriate patients.
