Mr. Georges G. praises the professionalism of the clinical team.

Yes, so I have memories; I have a lot of positive memories. So I remember the welcome, the attention that was given to me, the desire to be clear in the messages that were transmitted, whether by the doctors, or by the nursing staff, so nurses and other specifications. A really wonderful welcome. And I have to say, well I don’t know if I can tell you this like this, but it’s a perfect contrast to what I experienced when I was three years old. I had a tonsil operation in the hospital, it was the last time I was in the hospital and it went really, really badly. And for me the hospital is hell. So maybe in contrast, the experience I had, which was maybe ordinary, I don’t know, was wonderful. So I was taken care of in a very professional way, assured, reassured and I trusted them and it went very well.

Experiences in the intensive care unit

With the technical and medical possibilities on intensive care a patient can be able to survive life-threatening illnesses. These experiences of critical illness and intensive care medicine are challenging for patients and families. Often experiences made on intensive care unit (ICU) can be life changing.
In small video- or audio-sequences we would like to illustrate the experiences made by patients on ICU and how they handled their stay in this critical situation.
Many patients share their experiences on intensive care unit and show how these experiences influenced their life.

We are curious about your story!
