We are not recognized as much as people on the front line, as we are hidden away behind the scenes. With us doing the job we do, patients receive the best care possible and can be treated without delay, distress or inconvenience. We strive to ensure that all patients are given 5 star patient care. Like everyone in the NHS the past 2 years have been a very testing time however, we have pulled together as a team and supported each other throughout the tough times.

I just wanted to echo really the sentiment that most people are sending in, I am really thankful to everyone in the trust, as colleague, family member and a patient. The last couple of years have been really tough in more ways than one, yet through this difficult time it has emphasised just how strong of a team we are and just how resilient we can be. I did particularly want to say thank you to my fellow colleagues in Pathology, we are a multi-disciplinary department, which requires multi-faceted skill sets from scientific work, secretarial support and mortuary services, so patients and their families can receive the treatment and answers they so desperately need. Pathology have always been a close knit community within the hospital, but I feel during this difficult time it has really highlighted to me just how robust those bonds of community are and the level of care as a department we provide. Thank you everyone for all your support you have given me and my family it is really appreciated.

What a wonderful team I work in! Its so hard to put into words how grateful I am to be part of this incredible team. All the staff in radiology provide 5 star patient care. Everyone's priority is to ensure the patients get their imaging in a timely, professional, caring manner. All the staff have gone above and beyond to ensure we have not had to cancel any lists when the staffing has been challenging, some staff have worked numerous hours, while some have taken on different roles (or sometimes both) to ensure the patients journey through the department has been as quick and smooth as possible - from booking to reporting. Not only do they care for the patients but they care for each other, supporting each other through all that the pandemic and life events have thrown at many of us. I am so proud to be the manager of such a fantastic team - THANK YOU everyone for all your support and hard work.

Thankyou so much to all the staff in theatres who are working so hard, each and every day, to accommodate lists and ensure patients get their operations. Many staff are working overtime each week, staying late after their shifts, picking up extra hours during the week and even covering weekend shifts, all without even getting a proper lunch break on some days. A big thankyou to each and everyone of you. I know you're all exhausted and many are fed up after the past couple of years but I want you all to know how much we appreciate you all.
