"End of life care team treating my mother with dignity"

About: Newcastle PCT The Royal Victoria Infirmary

(as a relative),

My mother who was 92 in August was taken into the R.V.I hospital in Newcastle-Upon-Tyne for a water infection.

After a scan, she was diagnosed with cancer in her lung, head and bones.

She is getting care 24/7 and all the people connected with the service have been wonderful, very kind, caring and have treated her with dignity. I would just like to thank them all.
