"Grateful for hardworking staff of Nottingham University Hospitals"

As a recent patient I am grateful for the opportunity to show my gratitude for the excellent treatment, operation and aftercare that I received.

I cannot compliment too highly the nursing staff and auxilliaries who worked so hard day and night to ensure my health and wellbeing during my stay in hospital, always checking carefully my name, date of birth and patient number even though they knew who I was.

Also their hygene was exemplary, always using the hand wash after every treatment for instance, small details that gave great peace of mind, bearing in mind I was looking for assurance at every turn, and I certainly got it.

I found that the food was quite good, although at times could have been warmer, but bearing in mind the amount of patients they were serving at this large hospital, it must be said, that the food was generally of a very high standard.

I hope these few notes will be of some help to future patients looking for guidence when they have to go into hospital themselves.
