Review titled Help when help was needed
Rated 4 stars out of 5
by Carol Burbidge - Posted on 27 June 2023
Tonight I was at my wits end dealing with my fathers dementia. He turned against me and was in danger of putting himself in danger. The paramedics who attended were so patient and reassuring to him and helped to calm him down. Not only that they were patient and reassuring to me, dad’s main carer, a person at the end of their tether, sleep deprived and very cynical of the NHS. Great job girls, thank you so much.

Review titled First class service
Rated 5 stars out of 5

On 18 June we had cause to dial 999 as my elderly mother in law was found unconscious in the shower. Not only was the service speedy and efficient but carried out with the utmost respect for my MIL. The paramedics were absolutely brilliant and she owes her life to them - so saying thank you doesn’t really cover it. We (my husband and I ) are so thankful for their speedy assessment of the situation and the swift action they took in an attempt to make my MIL more comfortable. This, I’m sure played a contributory factor in her recovery. Many, many thanks from the friends and family of a 92 year old lady.

Review titled Great practice.
Rated 5 stars out of 5

Today waited no longer than 15 minutes for ambulance for my lovely wife. Very efficient and so caring as always. The paramedics were marvellous. I know the ambulance service gets many complaints and thought it was about time a good review was needed to keep their moral up. Keep up the great work you do and never lose your fantastic sense of humour. We would all be lost without all of you. Please send all my regards to both paramedics.

Review titled Brilliant fast service
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 17 February 2023
I run a local shop, tonight when serving a gentleman he had a seizure and hit his head heavy when falling. a member of the public who was also in the shop telephoned for an ambulance whilst he was fitting. The rapid response vehicle was here within 3 minutes of being called. and the ambulance was here within 7 minutes. the patient was checked over and taken to hospital. All in all a brilliant service. The paramedic in the rapid response also had a good sense of humour which is rare these days.

Review titled Outstanding care
Rated 5 stars out of 5

When my little girl two years old took poorly suddenly on the 29/12. The crews that attended could of been a more greater help and support to me as a mum and to my girl. They arrived so quickly and helped in every way they could, amazing service all round care, emotional support and emergency medical care. The two lady paramedics that continued on with the care and took us to the hospital we’re so calming and happy people that is absolutely needed in a stressful situation like it felt like for me. Over all they all kept my little girl safe and healthy as well as keeping me as stress free as possible. The reassurance and compassion was remarkable. Thank you again and to all our North West Ambulance Service team you’re amazing.

Review titled Fantastic Support/Care During Bereavement
Rated 5 stars out of 5

When my beloved mother had sadly Passed Away on Christmas Eve, the 2 Ambulance crew were just so caring, friendly and showcased compassion. They gave me full support and time to spend with my mother, whilse she was passing peacefully. As soon as I reported the emergency services, about my mothers decline, they came less than in 5 minutes. The Blackburn Emergency Ambulance Crew and Transport service are just incredible, and are always dedicated to their work. I just want to say Thank you.
