Mr R M M, Newcastle

"I first came to the Centre in August and for the past 7/8 weeks I feel that I have almost become one of the family.  At all times I have found your collective approach to me to be both professional and friendly.  I have listened to other folk waiting for treatment and without exception, everyone has sung your praises.  It must be tempting sometimes to treat people simply as a job of work to be done - I have never felt this whenever I have come in for my treatment and I am very grateful to you all for dealing with me as an individual rather than just another patient.  When I was told I had cancer I was very frightened.  I have to say it is down to good people like you that has helped me to deal with this disease on a daily basis."

Thank you letter to staff on Ward 38, NCCT

"We would just like to thank you all for looking after our mam throughout her illness. As you all know sadly Mam died, but without your care and true support, things would have been a lot different. At least she was in no pain and went peacefully with us all. Thank you so much for everything you all did – if it wasn’t for staff like you, the NHS would be nothing!" 

Mr R F R, Cumbria

"The unknown is always daunting and a concern, and everyone of you were professional in explaining exactly what was happening and carrying out the treatment.  So it was a pleasure rather than a dread each day for something that needed to happen".
