This is an amazing hospital who have a team of very dedicated and talented staff who ensure a quality of life, within and beyond hospital walls. My brother had the most wonderful care.

He has been particularly challenging both mentally and physically over the years. The care that he has received has been first class, and staff at St Peters have dealt with all these challenges with outstanding care and dignity.

Your team has been absolutely first class, ensuring that his needs have been met, at all times, and that we as a family have been kept up to date with everything. I have always felt his best interests have been in safe hands with the team.

“You’ve got to keep an eye on him because he’s got that little wobble…maybe he’ll always have that little wobble…but honestly, you’ve given him back to me.”

St Peter’s Hospital, wife of former patient

I wanted to send a note to all of the team to say thank you so much for all of the care, compassion, kindness and respect you have shown to my Dad whilst he has been a patient at St Peters. I know he isn’t always easy to look after with his low moods and feisty attitude at times. There have been so many people that have come in contact with him and he has genuinely always expressed how much people look after him so well when I speak to him. I also got to witness this first hand when I visited; I saw how much he gets from his interactions with the team. His time out in the community is priceless and means a lot. Thank you to the driving team for wandering round and round the motorbike shop each week!
Thank you so much
