Colleagues at Weardale Community Hospital have been featured in the Northern Echo this month after a patient shared their experience of care with local media - describing the hospital as a “secret gem”.
The article highlights the warmth, compassion and professionalism shown by the Weardale team, with patients and families praising everything from the calm, welcoming environment to the kindness and attention shown by nurses and healthcare support workers.
Matron Marie Race spoke with real pride about her team, praising their dedication and the ethos of caring for patients as they would their own families.
A huge thank you to the whole Weardale team for representing the Trust so positively and for the difference you continue to make to patients and their loved ones.
