Welcome to the world, Benson. Mum, Chelsea, shared a heartfelt thank you to the team at the Princess of Wales Hospital. 💙

“After a quick delivery, the care and support from Cath R, student midwife Geraldine, and Cath S was incredible, especially when Benson needed extra help with his breathing.

To the amazing SCBU staff, and midwives Karen and Robyn on the labour ward - your compassion and dedication made all the difference during Benson’s jaundice treatment.

We’re now home, happy, and so grateful.”

Croeso i'r byd, Benson. Rhannodd Mam, Chelsea, ddiolch o galon i'r tîm yn Ysbyty Tywysoges Cymru. 💙

“Ar ôl genedigaeth gyflym, roedd y gofal a’r gefnogaeth gan Cath R, y fydwraig fyfyriwr Geraldine, a Cath S yn anhygoel, yn enwedig pan oedd angen help ychwanegol ar Benson gyda’i anadlu.

I staff anhygoel yr Uned Gofal Arbennig i Fabanod, a'r bydwragedd Karen a Robyn ar y ward geni - gwnaeth eich tosturi a'ch ymroddiad yr holl wahaniaeth yn ystod triniaeth clefyd melyn Benson.

Rydyn ni adref nawr, yn hapus, ac mor ddiolchgar.”

Heartfelt praise for our Dermatology team at the Princess of Wales Hospital. 💙

“My wife has made many visits to dermatology for both small operations and many check ups, I have always gone with her. The attitude and demeanour of all the staff has been a pleasure to experience. Always a smile, helpful and courteous. Bedside manner is excellent.

I had a small operation some months ago, the surgeon and nurse made me laugh, the experience was excellent and the result positive. Thank you all.”

We’re always grateful when patients and their families take the time to share their experiences. You can share yours here: https://ctmuhb.nhs.wales/patient-advice/patient-feedback-civica/

Canmoliaeth o galon i'n tîm Dermatoleg yn Ysbyty Tywysoges Cymru. 💙

“Mae fy ngwraig wedi ymweld â dermatoleg lawer gwaith ar gyfer llawdriniaethau bach a llawer o archwiliadau, rydw i bob amser wedi mynd gyda hi. Mae wedi bod yn bleser profi agwedd ac ymarweddiad yr holl staff. Bob amser yn gwên, yn gymwynasgar ac yn gwrtais. Mae'r modd wrth y gwely yn ardderchog.

Cefais lawdriniaeth fach rai misoedd yn ôl, gwnaeth y llawfeddyg a'r nyrs i mi chwerthin, roedd y profiad yn ardderchog a'r canlyniad yn bositif. Diolch i chi gyd.”

Rydym bob amser yn ddiolchgar pan fydd cleifion a'u teuluoedd yn cymryd yr amser i rannu eu profiadau. Gallwch chi rannu eich un chi yma: https://bipctm.gig.cymru/cyngor-i-gleifion/adborth-cleifion-civica/
