"10/10 for Professional and Caring Paramedics"

About: South Western Ambulance Service NHS Foundation Trust

I'd had a night of chasing 111 and finally a doctor arrived at 3am. At 8.30am this morning 2 paramedics one of whom told me his name.They apent an hour with me doing blood pressure checks and ecg and checking my current meds being both very professional and reassuring and even phoned my GP to discuss. They were both excellent practitioners, explained everything to me and reassured me and calmed my anxiety. I would rate them higher than 10/10 as excellent if I could. After 2 recent unplanned stays in Glos Royal hospital paramedics did a great job of both talking to me in a reassuring and compassionate manner whilst being professional and informative the whole time. Thank you both!
