"Wonderful group of Student nurses on ward 54"

About: Victoria Hospital / Urology

(as a service user),

I've sang the praises of the nursing and HCA staff of ward 54 many times. That hasn't changed. I continue to be extremely grateful for their compassionate care. I wanted to leave a nice review for the current group of student nurses currently on ward 54. 

They are so lovely. Eager to learn. I can't say much on the clinical skills, although they all seem very competent already. What I can confidently say though, is that their bedside manner, their compassion and friendliness, (which, as patient I believe are just as important as any nursing clinical skills) are amazing. I'm home now, but I want to say thanks for each time they spent the time to listen when I needed someone to, each time they spent the time to talk about just normal stuff and the time they spent helping me feel better on tough days (both mentally and physically) I have no doubt each one of them will be amazing nurses (especially with the expertise of the staff on ward 54). As someone frequently in hospital, I hope I have the privilege of meeting them again, and being under their care when they qualify.

Dear JenPen.

Thank you for taking the time to post your recent patient experience on Care Opinion.

Thank you so much for the lovely mention regarding our student nurses.

We completely agree with you in regards to our recent cohort of students on the ward. They have been an outstanding bunch and am pleased that their contribution to the ward and their input has been highly commended and recognized.

Thank you for also recognizing the hard work that our trained and un-trained staff put in on developing our future workforce.

I have drawn their attention to this feedback and they are over the moon!!

It is important that our students receive feedback on how they are doing which includes feedback from other users. This is extremely uplifting for them and I have printed this feedback off to be displayed on our Care Opinion board for all to see.

I hope you continue to recover and thank you for taking the time out to post this.

Best wishes
