MANY of us praise the good work at DCH, myself and my family included, but we forget those that often take us to the hospital: the ambulance service.

They have a tough job as I know am fully aware just by overhearing some of the stories exchanged while waiting in the A&E department at DCH.

Therefore I would like to express my gratitude to the paramedics who have always tried to put me at ease by their reassuring words. Total respect to them all and the A&E staff who likewise try to reassure you and do what they can to try and make you feel at ease.

Thank you from my family and friends.
