Review of Community Clinical Nurse Specialist Team
28th February 2023


We were under the hospice at home team as we chose quality over quantity once my husband's diagnosis was terminal. Two weeks prior to his death, we had our home visit cancelled, then the following week we received a "how are you doing" telephone triage call. The day before my husband died I had to call out the night team, who administered additional drugs to help my husband's breathing easier. These unfortunately didn't have the desired effect and by morning I was frantically ringing to get the support my husband needed. On the morning of his death, I rang the hospice and CN'S for the Palliative care nurses, begging somebody to assist him (presuming they would visit) instead we got a very sympathetic but non medical team member call round to our home. My husband's death was beyond traumatic, he died struggling to breath, with a mask of terror on his face. His final days were anything but quality. The last words he uttered were "help me" This was anything but quality

Suggested improvements
You could have visited my husband for both the weeks prior to his death. Then you would have seen how much he had deteriorated. Once a relative is crying and begging for help on the telephone, and you acknowledge their breathing is horrendous don't send a non medical person to their home. My husband chose to die at home, but your service doesn't offer a calm nor dignified death.

I felt that they helped all they could but it’s not always possible to solve every bodies problem especially with it being about our mental heath!

Review of Community Clinical Nurse Specialist Team
10th February 2023


Meeting Lynsey and getting so much from this home visit was so completely different from what I was expecting/dreading. I felt like a friend had called in to help and support me on a bad day. Even the dog adored her. I was offered so much that I didn't even know was available and realise that Trinity Hospice is about so much more than just end of life treatment. It was lovely to sit and talk but I know Lynsey was finding out about me and my condition and what help I might need. She left with a list of things she was going to do/sort out for me. I felt far more positive about managing my anxiety and worry about breathlessness. I am so grateful to have been referred to this wonderful service and plan to make full use of everything I am offered. This will also help my husband who is doing so much to care for me.

Suggested improvements
I honestly don't think there is anything that could improve on what I was given today.
