All midwives on maternity ward were fantastic and catering staff.. Been to paediatric ward with my son since and although I can't remember names there was a mid height brown haired male doctor very friendly and fantastic with baby/child care and very interested in their care.. Also a lovely blonde haired nurse short blond hair almost to shoulders with glasses :) from all I came in contact with these were the most genuine and caring and fantastic people skills..

Pauleen from Antrim in the day ward and a wonderful blonde nurse in a flowery top - amazing ladies. The nurse stayed late, made extra tea and could not have been more professional. Their kindness and respect as well as continuous checking, reassurance and updating was so reassuring.

The ICU nurses were the best carers in the hospital - if only the doctors were as good. The ICU nurses gave my father great care in his last days

I can't recall the name of the Staff Sister on duty on Friday 15th June in A & E but she was so kind to me and so reassuring. I was and still am so stunned at the high level of real nursing care I got from her.

I was admitted recently to the Step down ward with a heart condition. The nurses were fantastic, explaining everything to me and my wife. A special mention to the night nurse Siobhan who's attitude and professionalism made me realise that nursing truly is a vocation. She sat with me and explained everything to me in language that I could understand. A true gem.

Kay and the team of nurses and staff working in the day ward. Despite being very busy they managed to combine a high level of efficiency with a caring attitude. They gave of their time without hesitation. They worked constantly under pressure. I am very grateful for the way in which they looked after my mother. They recognised that she was anxious and at all times endeavoured to reassure her and took the time to explain everything while dealing with all their other tasks.

The A&E triage nurses are absolutely outstanding. The care they gave to my Mam was excellent. The crap they had to put up with from the 3 doctors involved with my Mum was a joke but yet they never once let it effect the way they looked after my Mam. They saved her life!
