Amazing results from partnership working

Posted 11th August 2016

July's staff achievement award winner goes to the paediatric anaesthetic and recover team.

The team spent extra time adapting to a young patient’s every need to help him break down his anxiety as he was terrified of being put to sleep for radiotherapy treatment. He required 31 general anaesthetics, and they arrived very early each morning using different forms of role play and using his favourite Star Wars toys to make the process easier. They even dressed up in Star Wars costumes on his last day to celebrate with him.

We work closely with the team of staff from Wirral University Teaching Hospital to provide this vital service, demonstrating how important partnership working is and the amazing results.

Well done!
