"Efficient, always courteous and thoroughly professional"

About: Crosshouse Hospital

(as the patient),

I visited this unit for a colonoscopy and found all the lead up to procedure caring and attentive. The procedure itself was carried out by a team led by Sister Carrigan, whom I had met before to discuss the procedure. This team worked in a manner we can only dream about: industrious, efficient, always courteous and thoroughly professional. Sister Carrigan herself, needless to say, leads this team seriously and in a business-like manner but always with that quite efficiency of the true professional, I wonder if this outstanding service is the model that our country should be seeking rather than the more customary brash, inefficient and chaotic service models that seem to prevail. What a wonderful example they could find in Crosshouse Endoscopy Unit!

I was highly surprised by efficiency and consideration.

I respond initially to most of the posts and ensure they are passed to the appropriate team whether they are compliments, observations or grumbles. It is important to make sure all issues are addressed and I try to encourage that to happen for all the posts as required.

Dear cojo,

This is high praise indeed for Sister Carrigan, thank you so much for sharing such a complimentary endorsement of your experience. I am sure Sister Carrigan will be very proud to hear 'industrious, efficient, always courteous and thoroughly professional' spoken in relation to her (wouldn't we all).

It is a shame that these qualities were not expect, but I am delightful that you did find them.

Best wishes,

Eunice
