Penny Parker
Losing a loved one is never easy but, as the letter
below illustrates, it is so rewarding to know we
can really make a difference to our patients and
their families through such difficult times.
Shipston Home Nurses were
absolutely fantastic with our
Mum. They helped Mum to
wash and change and arranged
home visits from the GP for
stronger pain relief when it
was needed. The nurses took
time to talk and listen to Mum,
even about general things, not
just her illness. The Nurses
were also there for us as her
family. They were happy to
answer questions we had and
listened to our concerns in
confidence. I know Mum felt
very grateful to her nurses and
looked upon them as friends,
we as her family did too. It’s
not easy to watch someone you
love dearly suffering and being
taken away from you, but it was
nice to know the nurses were
there whenever we needed them
to make Mum as comfortable
and pain-free as they could. We
could not have got through it
