Pauline & Tracy attended the Mandeville Unit to insert a PICC line due to complications getting venous access for chemo the previous week.
This was organised by the staff in the Mandeville unit. It was done early morning, so the department was quite quiet. With mobility issues travelling to Belfast for this while undergoing chemo with it's side effects would have been a lot to manage. The girls were excellent, they explained the procedure prior to commencing but also explained throughout the whole procedure & were very reassuring to mummy. The girls were very informative & professional.
This is a service which we as a family could not praise enough, this service is definitely required for cancer patients within the Southern Trust.
"They were very informative & professional"
