Grateful to the ICU staff of the Linden Hospital

Dear Editor,

It is imperative that I extend my gratitude to the nurses of the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) of the Linden Hospital Complex, Dr Couchman, staff of the Lolita Health Centre, members of the SDA church and persons who were praying for the recovery of my wife.

After spending eight days in the ICU of one of Guyana’s best hospitals in Georgetown, she was discharged. Three weeks later, she was admitted to the hospital in Linden in a critical state and was placed in the ICU. One would not have thought that she would have survived after spending 19 days in a semi-conscious state, but the hospital did its work.

I am eternally thankful to the hospital and especially Dr Payne, who attended to her with great care and is still providing excellent follow-up treatment. Dr Payne was well supported by two lead ICU nurses who exhibited a high degree of professionalism and commitment to seeing my wife’s health restored to normalcy.

Yours faithfully,
Ashton Benjamin
