Thank A Care Team Form

Anonymous	1862	Anonymous	Thanks to Payge and Shannon for excellent care on the morning of August 16. Your great bedside manner and advice allowed us to continue with home treatment of my husband's back pain (diagnosed a few days before, at Delta Hospital ER, as compression fracture of L2 vertebra). The alternative -- another ER visit -- would have been a trial for us and far more costly for the health care system.	22/08/2023 8:52:08 AM
Jeff	1861	Jeff	I would like to express my gratitude to the paramedics who attended to me on June 24th at about 11:30am in Burnaby. I am the crashed motorcycle rider who you picked up off the road and transported to the Royal Columbian Hospital. The care you provided me was exemplary and I thank you.	21/08/2023 12:53:50 AM
Penny	1860	Penny	We had a non-emergency call for paramedics. Marla and James were the attending paramedics. They were absolutely professional in every way. They were polite, professional, and quickly put us at ease. They also took time to answer many of our questions regarding home care. We were very lucky to have them looking after us.

Anonymous	1859	Anonymous	Because of the very rapid response of two paramedic teams and the excellent care they provided on the way to VGH ER in the early morning of August 10, my wife is alive today. She is recovering from emergency surgery and the teams' quick recognition of her urgent pre-operation needs made a huge difference to her condition. Thank you so much!!	17/08/2023 7:24:43 PM
Veronica	1858	Veronica	To Laurel and Kendall (apologies if I spelled your names wrong). Thank you for tending to me on Aug 12, when I quickly developed hazy vision, muffled hearing, and passed out from dizziness. I appreciate your patience with me when I struggled to describe what happened in words. I am also thankful of the explanations of what was happening in a way that I could understand. Thank you!	13/08/2023 4:07:07 AM
Kim	1857	Kim	I want to thank the two paramedics who attended to an elderly gentleman on August 8th in Port Alberni. I don't know who he was but I appreciated the care you took.	11/08/2023 10:50:18 PM
Trevor	1856	Trevor	On the morning of July 13, 2023, I suffered a slight stroke. Paramedics were called and arrived a short time later at my home in Comox. Both the lady and gentleman who attended were not only empathetic but also extremely professional in how they treated me. Please thank them both on behalf of my wife and myself.	08/08/2023 11:27:47 PM
Frances	1855	Frances	My family wishes to acknowledge Adam. He helped our mom take her last steps on Friday, Nov. 11/22 mid-afternoon. He determined that her hip was not fractured. He was very patient with her. Mom decided to didn't need to go for an X-ray. Two other calls to 911 were made early Nov. 12 and the paramedics were thorough and kind as well. Sorry it took as long I wasn't aware where to say thanks.	08/08/2023 11:09:41 PM
Wendy	1854	Wendy	Thank you Ryan for coming to my home in Abbotsford. You were kind and good to me. You were understanding and compassionate. I really appreciate everything. Thank you again. Wendy	08/08/2023 9:22:00 PM
